Mixed Numbers

• Whole numbers are numbers like 1, 5, 21, 356, 3

• Fractions are parts: 1/2, 1/5, 3/7, 3/4

• BUT

• Mixed numbers have BOTH ... whole and fractions

• 3 1/4 .... 4 1/2 ..... 2 6/7

Lets look at this

The last circle is NOT completely shaded. Only 1 out of 2 or 1/2 is shaded . So this is a fraction.

My answer is 2 1/2
