Write 9/4 as a Mixed Number

In order to write 9/4 as a mixed number in simplest form (sometimes people will say "as a whole number" or "mixed fraction" ) we can follow a few steps.

Note that 9/4 is already simplified (in lowest terms). So we can't reduce or simplify 9/4 any further. But we can write is as a mixed number.

First we can divide the numerator (9) by the denominator (4). 4 goes into 9 a total of 2 times with a remainder of 1.

Second, we take the remainder and put it over the original denominator. This gives us 1/4.

For the mixed number we have the whole number 2 and the fraction (from the remainder) of 1/4.

So 9/4 written as a mixed number is 2 1/4 (two and one-forth).

To check your work you can now multiply the whole number in mixed fraction by the denominator (2 x 4) and add this to the numerator (the 1 in the1/4) you will get 9/4. This is a good way to check that you have the right mixed fraction.
