Practice Mixed Numbers in Math
Use these practice problems to test your method after reviewing the concept explanation and worked examples.
Quick Recap
A mixed number combines a whole number and a proper fraction, such as 3\frac{1}{4}, representing the sum of the whole part and fractional part: 3 + \frac{1}{4} = \frac{13}{4}.
You ate 2 whole pizzas and \frac{3}{4} of a third pizza—that's 2\frac{3}{4} pizzas.
Example 1
easyAdd 1\frac{2}{5} + 2\frac{1}{5}.

mediumSubtract 4\frac{1}{3} - 1\frac{3}{4}.
Example 3
easyA recipe needs 2\frac{3}{4} cups of flour and 1\frac{1}{4} cups of sugar. How many cups of dry ingredients are needed in total?
Example 4
hardAdd 3\frac{5}{6} + 2\frac{3}{4}.
Example 5
mediumMultiply 2\frac{1}{3} \times 1\frac{1}{2}.
