How are mixed numbers used in The real world

Mathematics
1 answer:
Jobisdone [24]3 years ago
3 0
Often, mixed number are used in terms of amounts of something. You would never say I have 16/5 pies. You would say I have 3 full pies and 1/5 of another pie. 

In this example, 3 1/5 is better to use than the improper 16/5

Hope this helps!
