There is no common factor other than 1 between the numerator and denominator of the above expression, so it cannot be reduced further. But, in the above fraction, the numerator is greater than the denominator, so it is not in the standard form. The fraction in which the numerator is greater than or equal to the denominator is known as an improper fraction. So, it is an improper fraction. And hence it is necessary to convert it into a mixed fraction to get a correct answer.
