a mixed number is a whole number with a fraction, ie. 2 3/4 Adding mixed numbers involves adding the whole numbers, then adding the fractions, then reducing the fraction and if it is improper, changing it to a whole number with a fraction and adding that whole number to the other whole number answer.
Mixed numbers is when you have a whole number put beside a fraction: Mixed number: 12/3 Improper fraction: 5/4 Proper fraction: 2/3
Mixed numbers cannot be turned into proper fractions, but they can be made into improper fractions by multiplying the integer (# on the side) by the denominator (bottom), and then adding that number to the numerator (top).
This is called a mixed number. Mixed numbers are numbers that stand for both a fraction and a whole number. For example: 41/2
Because they can be expressed as a fraction
when you add mixed numbers you have a whole number but adding fraction does not.

Change each mixed fraction to an improper fraction. Do this by multiplying the denominator by the whole number next to the fraction and then adding the numerator to the product you get. Once you do this, multiply fractions normally.

A mixed number is a fraction
No. Mixed numbers are a number and a fraction.
It means adding numbers that are part fraction and part whole number, like 3 and 1/4 + 2 and 1/2 = 5 and 3/4 A mixed number is a fraction and a whole number. An example would be: 1 1/2 + 2 1/2 = 4
That depends on what you are adding it to.
