An improper fraction is one in which the magnitude of the numerator (number on top) is greater than the magnitude of the denominator (number on bottom)
I used the word magnitude so you wouldn't be confused by negative numbers, example:
-3
-- would be improper, since 3 is greater than 2.

You do not do anything. An improper fraction IS a real number.
Some numbers are improper fractions and some are not. For example, 1/2 or 0.5 is a number but not an improper fraction. And there is no way in which you can express it as an improper fraction.
If you are using the same number, then the improper fraction and mixed number are equal.
First you would want to change the mixed number to an improper fraction. Then you can subtract

twelve eighths is already in improper fraction, an improper fraction is a fraction which has a numerator (top number) larger than the denominator (bottom number)
Convert the mixed number into an improper fraction then divide the fraction and improper fraction as normal (invert the divisor and multiply) and simplify the result (including converting any improper fraction into a mixed number)
An Improper Fraction is when the top number is bigger than the bottom number
First you would want to change the mixed number to an improper fraction. Then you can subtract
An improper fraction is a fraction in which the top number (numerator) is largerthan the bottom number (denominator).Such a fraction can always be converted to a whole number plus sometimes a'proper' fraction.Examples:The improper fraction 45/15 = 3 .The improper fraction 10/7 = 13/7 .
43 is an integer, not an improper fraction nor a mixed number.
Any whole number can become an improper fraction by putting it over one. 9 = 9/1
