17/6 as a mixed number

just divide 17 by 6 and you'll get your mixed number:

2 5/6

To transform this improper fraction into a mixed number, we must see how many times 6 can go into 17.

6*2=12

Since it can go twice, our whole number is 2.

Now we subtract 17-12 = 5

5 is our remainder, so it goes over 6.

Our final answer: 2 5/6
