Every mixed number is (a whole number) plus (a fraction). Since part of it is a whole number,

the mixed number must be greater than ' 1 '.

1/8 plus 2/3 is only 0.79166... and that's less than ' 1 '. So it doesn't have what it takes

to be a mixed number, no matter what you do to it or how you write it.
