Fractions | Proper, Improper & Mixed Number Fractions

Fractions are equal parts cut from a whole object. There are three different types of fractions and they are, proper, improper and mixed number fractions.

Proper fractions are fractions that have the denominator bigger than the numerator. Improper fractions are fractions that aren't suitable and have their denominator less than the numerator. Mixed number fractions are fractions that have a whole and fraction, for example: 1 and 2/5.

People can convert each fraction into a decimal representation by dividing the numerator by the denominator. For example: I have 8/10, 8 ÷ 10 = 0.8. This means the decimal representation of 8/10 is 0.8.
