The absolute value of the given fraction is less than 1. Therefore it is not a muxed fraction and it is not possible to represent it as an improper fraction.
Yes it is. A regular fraction is a fraction where the numerator is smaller than the denominator, thus the value of the fraction will always be less than one. Note that a fraction with it's numerator bigger than the denominator does not count as a regular fraction; it is called a improper fraction. Whereas a mixed fraction is a regular fraction with a whole number at the left that is at least one. Thus, the value of a mixed fraction will always be more than one.
An improper fraction has the numerator equal to or greater than the denominator.
An improper fraction has an absolute value which is greater than or equal to 1.
By definition, a mixed fraction is one whose absolute value is greater than 1 whereas, again by definition, a proper fraction is one whose absolute value is less than 1. It therefore follows from the definitions that one of these cannot be turned into the other.
