Because say if you drew a number line and you couldonly write numbers from 0 to1.Those two are whole numbersthis numbers right here whichare 1 and 1/3 is a mixed number
A mixed number has a whole number and a fraction. If the whole number part of a mixed number is less than a whole number, then the mixed number will be less than the whole number. For example,
7 1/3 < 8
23 3/4 < 100
4 1/2 > 4
Any number between ' 1 ' and ' 2 ' is a mixed number, but
it's less than any whole number that's greater than 1.

no. lets use 10,000,000,000,000, which is a whole number, and 1 1/2, which is a mixed number. all a mixed number is is a mix of fractions and whole numbers,
Sure, you can write it that way. But for the final result, you should always convert it to a mixed number in standard form, or to an improper fraction.
It can't be one. Mixed numbers are greater than one. As a fraction 0.222... = 2/9 As a mixed number consists of a whole number and a fraction you could say it is the whole number 0 and the fraction 2/9 = 0²/₉ as a mixed number, but the absolute value of a mixed number is usually greater than 1.
If the fraction part of the mixed number is less than 1/2, get rid of it and leave the whole number. If it is equal to or greater than 1/2, get rid of it and increase the whole number by 1.
No. A mixed number is a whole number and a fraction.
