#2 1/6#

Explanation:

To convert an improper fraction to mixed number form, you have to

first divide the fraction out. In this case it is #13# divided by #6# since

your improper fraction is #13/6#

When you divide #13# by #6# , you get an answer of #2# with remainder #1# .

You now have all the information you need to create your mixed

fraction.

Use your answer ( #2# ) as whole number in front of the fraction. Use

the number you got for your remainder ( #1# ) as the numerator and

use the denominator you have in your original improper fraction.

Doing this results in: #2 1/6#
