A fraction can have non-zero whole number value when the improper fraction is such that the numerator is an exact (whole number) multiple (which is not zero) of the denominator will the fraction have a whole number value. for example 10/5 = (5×2)/(5×1) = 2/1 = 2 ÷ 1 = 2.
A fraction whose numerator (top number) and denominator (bottom number) are the same has a value of 1. The fraction, 5 over 5 (5/5), for example, is (bottom) 5 divided into (top) 5 = 1. 9/9 = 1, 7/7 = 1, and so on.
The absolute value of 0.4 is less than 1 so there is no sensible way of expressing it as a mixed number. As a fraction in its simplest (not simplist!) form, it is 2/5.
