4. The fraction is an improper one, rewrite it as a mixed number (mixed fraction):

  • A mixed number = an integer number and a proper fraction, of the same sign.
  • Example 1: 2 1/5; Example 2: - 1 3/7.
  • A proper fraction = the numerator is smaller than the denominator.

41,817 ÷ 12,500 = 3, remainder = 4,317 ⇒

41,817 = 3 × 12,500 + 4,317 ⇒

41,817/12,500 =

(3 × 12,500 + 4,317) / 12,500 =

(3 × 12,500) / 12,500 + 4,317/12,500 =

3 + 4,317/12,500 =
