With mixed #s, you could find a way to figure out what the improper fraction is.
Example 2 5/16
The whole number when it's 1 equals to 16/16
The whole number when it's 2 equals to 32/16
You would then add 5/16 and you would get 37/16
I hope this is what you were talking about ;w;

Sorta yeah, except it's kinda hard to convert it. 
Can I do: 4 1/4 + 5 1/4 like 
4 + 5 (since both are whole numbers) = 9, and then do 1/4 plus 1/4?

Ok so with that, you are correct.
