4 Mr. Roche: 1st Year maths 2.Change Improper Fractions to Mixed Numbers E.g. Change into a mixed number. = 4 Denominator ? Denominator ? What is the shape of the answer? The Denominator doesn’t change Now Divide: 13 ÷ 4 Now Divide: 13 ÷ 4 13 ÷ 4 = 3 Times Remainder 1 13 ÷ 4 = 3 Times Remainder 1 3 Whole Number ? Whole Number ? 1 Numerator ? Numerator ?
