An improper fraction has a numerator larger than or equal to its denominator, such as 11/4. To convert it to a mixed number, divide 11 by 4. You get 2 as the quotient (the whole part) and 3 as the remainder (new numerator), so 11/4 = 2 3/4. Mathematically, if you have a fraction a/b, it becomes (a ÷ b) remainder (a mod b). Mixed numbers help interpret real-world measurements (like 2 3/4 cups of flour) or divide items among groups. Understanding and switching between fraction forms fosters flexibility and clarity in arithmetic and practical tasks alike.
