Shall we begin with the definition of a "mixed number"?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A mixed number is a whole number plus a fraction

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A number consisting of an integer and a proper fraction.

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Yes, it is the result of the adding of an integer and a fraction. "mixed" means that which is composed of clearly defined elements, right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):
