Divide numerator by denominator: To convert an improper fraction to a mixed fraction, we divide the numerator by the denominator.Here, we divide 13 (numerator) by 5 (denominator).13÷5=2 with a remainder of 3.
Identify whole number and fractional part: The quotient from the division becomes the whole number part of the mixed fraction, and the remainder becomes the numerator of the fractional part. The denominator remains the same.So, the mixed fraction is 2 whole parts and 53 as the fractional part.
Write final mixed fraction: We write the mixed fraction as 253. This is the final answer, and we check to ensure there are no mathematical errors.
