These egg packages are all wrong! A carton can only hold either 6 or 12 eggs, but each one here has more. Can you turn these improper fractions into mixed numbers? Remember to simplify any proper fraction if needed.

If a fraction is top-heavy, it's an improper fraction. For example, 17/12 is improper because the top number (numerator) is greater than or equal to the bottom number (denominator). In this activity, you'll practice changing improper fractions into mixed numbers. A mixed number is a whole number plus a proper fraction. So, instead of writing 17/12, you would write 1 5/12. Some of the answers may also need to be simplified after converting. Check out the step-by-step guide, then complete the activity!
