Question

How do change 10/4 into a mixed number

Answer 1

Answer: 2 and 2/4

Step-by-step explanation: To write an improper fraction as a mixed number, divide the denominator into the numerator.

So here, we have 4 divided into 10.

4 divides into 10 one time, 2 times 4 is 8 and 10 - 8 is 2.

So 4 divides into 10 two times with a remainder of 2.

So we have 2 wholes and 2 out of 4 parts or 2 and 2/4.

So the improper fraction 10/4 can be written as the mixed number 2 and 2/4.

Answer 2

Answer: 2(1/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

divide 10 by 4. This will give

10/4 = 5/2

When 5 is divided by 2, we will have 2 remainder 1. This is written as 2(1/2)
