convert \\(\frac{18}{7}\\) into a mixed number.
answer attempt 1 out of 2
blank \\(\frac{blank}{blank}\\) submit answer

Explanation:

Step1: Divide numerator by denominator

Divide 18 by 7. \( 18 \div 7 = 2 \) with a remainder of 4, since \( 7 \times 2 = 14 \) and \( 18 - 14 = 4 \).

Step2: Form the mixed number

A mixed number is written as \( \text{whole number} + \frac{\text{remainder}}{\text{denominator}} \). So, using the quotient (2), remainder (4), and original denominator (7), we get \( 2\frac{4}{7} \).

Answer:

\( 2\frac{4}{7} \)
