16/5 is called an improper fraction - - the numerator is larger than the denominator. You can convert this to a mixed number; a whole number and a proper fraction. To convert, realize that a fraction can be thought of as division, so we divide 16 by 5. 5 goes into 16 3 times with a remainder of 1. So you cna think of 16/5 as 15/5+1/5. ((3*5) / 5+1/5)

In front of you, you see 16/5. So, try long division. divide 16 by 5. find the largest number which multiplies by 5 to give another number which is the largest multiple of 5 but this time less than 16. and this number is 3, which multiplies by 5 to give you 15.3 x 5=15, 15 is smaller than 16, so move ahead. 3 is your number so write it down separately. then now you have your 15 with you. next, you subtract your 15 from your 16. you are left with 1. the remainder is 1. all you need to do is write 3, then 1 above a denominator which will always be the same denominator from the improper fraction (16/5) your answer is 3 1/5. Now, cross check, change your mixed fraction to improper fraction. you do this by multiplying your whole number (3) by the denominator of the fraction (5) you get 15 and then quickly add the numerator to it (1) you get 16. now for your improper one just put 16 above the denominator of the mixed fraction (5) 16/5 ... tadda, your answer is correct.
