How do you change 17.6 into a mixed number?

All you have to do to get 17.6 into a mixed number is this:

17 is the whole number, so take that out of the problem and into the answer, so now all you have is 0.6.

The six is in the tenths place so you put that over ten. Now you just combine your two answers and simplify the six-tenths. Then ta-da! Mixed number.

Here's an example:

22.8 = 22 8/10

22 8/10 = 22 4/5
