Make it an improper fraction. The improper version of the mixed number 21 11/16 can be found by following these steps:
21 11/16 = 21 × 16 + 11 / 16 = 347/16
then divide this fraction by two
347/2= 173.5
16/2=8
now you have a complex improper fraction, which you must convert back to a mixed number.
The result is 7 and 11.5/18
edit: convert the 18 to 16 since your tape measurer counts by sixteenths.
Source(s): Hope this helps. It took me a second to think about. Btw, I used mental math, so you should check with a calculator. Or you could just multiply my final answer by two and see if it comes out to be 21 and 11/16.
