fraction
whole number
submit

Explanation:

Step1: Multiply integer and numerator

Multiply 8 (integer) with 2 (numerator of the fraction). So, \( 8 \times 2 = 16 \). The denominator remains 5. So the result as a fraction is \( \frac{16}{5} \).

Step2: Convert to mixed number

Divide 16 by 5. 5 times 3 is 15, with a remainder of 1. So, \( \frac{16}{5} = 3\frac{1}{5} \).

Answer:

3\(\frac{1}{5}\) (for the mixed number boxes: whole number part 3, numerator 1, denominator 5)
