Question

write 17/4 as a mixed number

Answer 1

first work out 17 / 4
what is the quotient and what is the remainder?

Answer 2

4.25

Answer 3

Ok I#m perhaps not explaining myself very well
What is the whole number you get when you divide 17 by 4 ?

Answer 4

4

Answer 5

right
and the remainder is 17-4(4) = 17 - 16 = 1

Answer 6

so the mixed number consists of the while number part which is 1 and the fraction is the reminder / 4 which = 1/4

so the mixed number is 4 1/4
