A mixed numeral is larger than a proper fraction. A proper fraction is a fraction where the numerator is less than the denominator, such as 1/2 or 3/4. A mixed numeral is a combination of a whole number and a fraction, such as 3 1/2 or 5 3/4. The whole number component of a mixed numeral makes it larger than a proper fraction.
