Convert this fraction number to a mixed number.
Let's find the whole number first.
The formula for this is:
Numerator/Denominator) in whole numbers
Using the fraction you entered of 9/18, let's evaluate:
Whole Number = 9 / 18 = 0.5
Whole Number = Integer(0.5)
Whole Number = 0
Find the fractional portion of the mixed number
| (Numerator - Denominator x Whole Number) | |
| Denominator |
Using the values we entered and calculated, we get:
| Fraction Portion = | (9 - 18 x 0) |
| 18 |
| Fraction Portion = | 9 - 0 |
| 18 |
| Fraction Portion = | 9 |
| 18 |
Combine both pieces for the mixed number:
Mixed Number = Whole Number & fraction Portion
Mixed Number = 0 & 9/18
Write this as a whole number
Whole Number = 0
Final Answer
1/2
