How do you convert 5/7 into a mix number?

Answer: if we wanted to convert our example answer 1 2/5 back to an improper fraction we would do it like this

Step-by-step explanation:

1x5=5> (2+5) / 5=7/5

1 2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Set up the division problem in long division format.

2. Divide 7 by 5. Place this digit in the quotient on top of the division symbol

3. Multiply the newest quotient digit (1) by the divisor 5.

4. Subtract 5 from 7.

5. The result of division of 7 / 5 is 1 with a remainder of 2.

6. Use the long division solution to convert the original fraction (7 / 5) to a mixed number. The whole number portion of the mixed number will be the number of times the denominator of the original fraction (1) divides evenly into the numerator of the original fraction, and the fraction portion of the mixed number will be the remainder of the original fraction division (2) over the denominator of the original fraction (5)
