What are Improper Fractions and Mixed Numbers
Part of being able to calculate with fractions, is to have the maths skills to convert improper fractions (also called top-heavy fractions) into mixed numbers and the other way around. Considering on your IGCSE GCSE maths exam papers you always have to simplify the fractions in your final answer, it is important that you understand the relationship between improper fractions and mixed numbers. Therefore please examine the video below first which will take the time to explain this maths topic to you. You will be doing yourself a tremendous favour when you make sure you can confidently change a mixed number into an improper fraction and the other way around.
