Question

Change to mixed numbers or whole numbers.

$\frac{10}{3}$

Answer 1

If the numerator is greater than or equal to the denominator, then the fraction is greater than or equal to 1. To change such a fraction to a whole number or a mixed number, we divide the numerator by the denominator.

$\frac{Numerator}{Denominator}=Numerator÷Denominator=Quotient\frac{Remainder}{Numerator}(forNumerator\ge Denominator)$

$\frac{10}{3}=10÷3=3\frac{1}{3}$

Hence the given fraction can be written in mixed number as $\frac{10}{3}=3\frac{1}{3}$
