Use the long division solution to convert the original fraction ((25)/(3)) to a mixed number. The whole number portion of the mixed number will be the number of times the denominator of the original fraction divides evenly into the numerator of the original fraction (8 ), and the fraction portion of the mixed number will be remainder of the original fraction division ( 1) over the denominator of the original fraction (3).

A mixed number is a fraction that has a whole number with a fraction. 25/3 is currently an improper fraction. With this problem, you need to now how many times the denominator (the bottom number) goes into the numberator (the top number). Notice that 3 goes into 25 8 times (since 3x8=24). This means your whole number will be 8. Now to make the fractions equivalent (or equal) to eachother, you need to know what the numerator is. This is done by simply subtracting the current numerator with how many whole terms you removed (whole terms = 3/3), which is 8 wholes, or 3/3 x 8 = 24/3. So 25/3 - 24/3 = 1/3. So now you combine your answers. Your whole number goes first, then your remainder. So your answer will be: 8 1/3
You can also check your work by multiplying your denominator with your whole number and then adding your numerator. 3 * 8 + 1 = 25.
There you go. Hope I helped.
