Ignoring negative numbers, proper fractions are less than one. Mixed numbers are greater than one.

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.

Well, honey, a mixed numeral is always larger than a proper fraction. A proper fraction is just a fraction where the numerator is smaller than the denominator, while a mixed numeral has a whole number and a fraction combined. So, if you want to go big or go home, go for the mixed numeral.

If both are positive, then the mixed numeral; if both are negative, then the proper fraction; and if you have one of each, then it is the one that is positive.
