Studdy Solution
STEP 1
Assumptions1. We are dividing14 by53. . The result should be a mixed number in simplest form.
STEP 2
First, we need to determine how many times53 goes into14. Since53 is larger than14, it does not go into14 any times.
STEP 3
Since53 does not go into14, the remainder is14. This remainder becomes the numerator of the fraction part of our mixed number.
STEP 4
The denominator of the fraction part of our mixed number is the number we were dividing by, which is53.
STEP 5
We can now write our mixed number. The whole number part is0, the numerator of the fraction part is14, and the denominator of the fraction part is53.
This is already in simplest form, as14 and53 have no common factors other than1.
