Never. You could write a fraction as a mixed fraction if you like and then the mixed fraction would have a different denominator (e.g.: 23/2 = 11 1/2)
How do you subtract a mixed number and a fraction?
take the denominator from the mixed number and multiply it by the whole number on the mixed number. take your answer and add the numerator from the mixed number. take your answer and make it the numerator of a new fraction,but take the old denominator from the mixed number and make that the new denominator.take your new fraction and try to get a common denominator with the other fraction. when they both have the same denominator then subtract........it sounds complicated, i know. example:1 1/3 - 2/6, then turn the mixed number to 4/3 by following the steps. so now you have 4/3 - 2/6. Then multiply 4/3 x 2/2 so you get 8/6. now you subtract, 8/6 - 2/6 = 6/6. but 6/6 equals 1,so thats an answer.
How do your borrow from a whole number when subtracting fractions?
A mixed number has a whole number and a fraction. A fraction is a number that is less than whole and that has a denominator underneath a numerator. To add or subtract mixed numbers, add or subtract the fractions, then add or subtract the whole numbers. If the fraction portion of a mixed number, such as 2 5/6, is more than the fraction portion of the mixed number you're trying to subtract from, such as 3 1/6, you must borrow from the whole number of the mixed number you're trying to subtract from to make its fraction bigger...

How do you subtract mixed factions?
By finding their lowest common denominator and then alter the numerator and denominator of the given fractions accordingly

How do you make an improper number into a whole number?
Three methods immediately spring to mind:Multiply the improper fraction by its denominator (or any multiple of the denominator);divide the numerator by the denominator to get a remainder. Put this as a fraction over the denominator and subtract it from the original fraction and then simplify this resulting fraction;divide the numerator by the denominator to get a remainder. Subtract this from the denominator and put this as a fraction over the denominator and add it from the original fraction and then simplify this resulting fraction.However I suspect you really meant to ask how to convert an improper fraction into a mixed number:Divide the numerator (top number) by the denominator (bottom number) to get a whole number and a remainder;put this remainder as the numerator over the original denominator to make a fractionput this fraction with the whole number result of the division in step one.eg convert 22/5 to a mixed number:22 ÷ 5 = 4 remainder 2remainder 2 ⇒ 2/5whole number is 4 ⇒ mixed number is 42/5Thus 22/5 = 42/5
