Understanding Mixed Numbers and Fractions

The video tutorial explains mixed numbers and how to locate them on number lines. It begins with a review of mixed numbers, which are a combination of whole numbers and fractions. The tutorial then demonstrates how to find mixed numbers on number lines, using examples like one and a half, two and two-thirds, and five and three-quarters. Each example involves dividing the space between whole numbers into equal parts to represent fractions.
