Mixed fractions are a combination of a whole number and a proper fraction. For example, 1 1/2 is a mixed fraction where 1 is the whole number and 1/2 is the proper fraction. Another example is 3 3/4, where 3 is the whole number and 3/4 is the proper fraction. Mixed fractions are commonly used in everyday measurements and calculations.

Another example could be 3 and 3/4, where you have the whole number 3 along with a fraction of 3/4, creating a delightful mixed fraction. Just like adding different colors to your palette, mixed fractions add variety and charm to your mathematical creations.
