When the sum of the negatives is an integer is when the sum is a whole number
Before you can do that, you need to write each mixed number as an improper fraction, and then write both fractions with a common denominator. The only other choice is to write both mixed numbers as decimals, and then add them.
Yes
11/3 + 12/3 = 3 (is one example only)
1.5 + 0.5 = 2

The sum of two positive mixed numbers can not equal two because all positive mixed numbers are greater then one.no two can be, 1 1/2 and 1/2
Yes
11/3 + 12/3 = 3 (is one example only)
No.
yes
Yes
The sum of the two mixed numbers 3 1/3 and 2 2/3 is 6.
3.75 and 3.75
There is only one example where the sum of two mixed numbers can be equal to two. 1/1 + 1/1 All other combinations of mixed numbers will be greater than two.
No. Each mixed number is made of a whole number and a fraction. When you add them, you have the sum of two whole numbers and two fractions. Since each whole number must be at least ' 1 ', the sum of two whole numbers must be at least ' 2 ', and the two fractions will always make it more than ' 2 '.
