Question

write \\(\frac{23}{17}\\) as a mixed number.

Explanation:

Step1: Divide numerator by denominator

Divide 23 by 17. \(23 \div 17 = 1\) with a remainder of \(23 - 17\times1 = 6\).

Step2: Form the mixed number

A mixed number is formed as \( \text{Quotient} \frac{\text{Remainder}}{\text{Divisor}} \). So, using the quotient (1), remainder (6), and divisor (17), we get \(1\frac{6}{17}\).

Answer:

\(1\frac{6}{17}\)
