Hi Cristian, A mixed number has a whole number part and a fractional part, for example 4 3/5 is a mixed number. You have 7.62 which is the whole number 7 and the fraction 0.62 written as a decimal. To express this as a mixed fraction you need to expression the decimal part by a common fraction. I am going to illustrate with a different number 12.35. 12.35 has 12 as the whole number part and 0.35 as the fraction. The decimal notation means that I hope this helps, | ||||||||||||
