Mixed Number, Improper and Proper Fractions

Fractions are the equal pieces that have been cut from a whole object. The three different types of fractions are: proper, improper and mixed number fractions.


When the denominator is bigger than the numerator, it is a proper fraction (3/4). 

Improper fractions are fractions that have their denominator less than their numerator (7/6).

Mixed number fractions are fractions that have a whole as well as a fraction (1 and 2/5).

When converting each fraction into a decimal representation, divibe the numerator by the denominator. Example: If someone has 3/10, 3 ÷ 10 = 0.3. The decimal representation of 3/10 is 0.3.
