question
convert \\(\frac{55}{6}\\) into a mixed number.
answer attempt 1 out of 2

Explanation:

Step1: Divide numerator by denominator

Divide 55 by 6. \( 55 \div 6 = 9 \) with a remainder of \( 55 - 6\times9 = 55 - 54 = 1 \).

Step2: Form the mixed number

A mixed number is formed as \( \text{Quotient} \frac{\text{Remainder}}{\text{Divisor}} \). So, \( \frac{55}{6} = 9\frac{1}{6} \).

Answer:

\( 9\frac{1}{6} \)
