An example of a mix number would be

11/5

What do you think they are?
Ms. Sue
11/5 is NOT a mixed number. It is a fraction.

2 1/5 is a mixed number that equals 11/5.

Your right Ms. Sue. I apologize for the incorrect answer.
physics
11/5 is an improper fraction, once you divide it, it will become a mixed number like MS.Sue said, 2 1/5
