To convert an improper fraction to a mixed or whole number, divide the numerator by the denominator. The quotient will be the whole number, and the remainder will be the numerator of the fraction. Therefore, 37 ÷ 3 = 12 with a remainder of 1. So the mixed number is 12 1/3. Choice B is the only option that matches this answer.
