How do you change an improper fraction to a mixed number? - CORRECT ANSWER-Divide the
denominator into the numerator. The result is the whole number. The remainder is the
numerator of the proper fraction, and the value of the denominator does not change.
Example: 5/2 is 2 1/2 because 2 goes into 5 twice with a remainder of 1.
How do you change a mixed number to an improper fraction? - CORRECT ANSWER-Multiply the
