Title: Improper Fractions and Mixed Numbers - Fast And Easy Math Learning Videos
In this lesson, you will learn about proper fractions, improper fractions, and mixed numbers. Before we begin this lesson, though, we will review fractions that are less than one, equal to one, and more than one. In a previous lesson, you learned that a fraction is less than one when the numerator is less than the denominator.
One-half is less than one.
You also learned that a fraction is equal to one when the numerator and denominator are the same.
Two-halves is equal to one.
And you learned that a fraction is more than one when the numerator is more than the denominator.
Three-halves is more than one.
Here's a new word: proper fraction.
A proper fraction is a fraction less than one. One-half is a proper fraction.
Two-halves is not a proper fraction because two-halves is not less than one
Three-halves is not a proper fraction because three halves is not less than one.
Here's a new word: Improper fraction.
An improper fraction is a fraction equal to one, or more than one.
Two-halves is an improper fraction and three-halves is an improper fraction.
Let's look at a few examples of proper and improper fractions: A proper fraction is a fraction less than one. Five-sixths is a proper fraction.
An improper fraction is a fraction equal to one, or more than one.
Six-sixths is an improper fraction and seven-sixths is an improper fraction.
Here’s an example. In this example, the correct answer is proper fraction. Three-fourths is less than one, so three-fourths is a proper fraction.
So far in this lesson we've covered proper fractions and improper fractions. Now, we will learn about mixed numbers. A mixed number has both a whole number and a fraction.
A mixed number has both a whole number and a fraction.
Now try a few on your own. For the problems that follow, click on the correct answer. In this example, the correct answer is mixed number. Three and one-half has both a whole number and a fraction, so three and one-half is a mixed number.
