Question \( 1(30) \) 1.1. Explain in simple terms to an Intermediate Phase learner using your own words the difference among improper, mixed, and proper fractions.

Improper fractions are fractions where the top number is bigger than the bottom number, like 7/4. It means you have more than one whole part! Mixed fractions have both a whole number and a fraction together, such as 1 3/4, which means you have one whole and three-quarters more. Proper fractions are when the top number is smaller than the bottom number, like 2/3, meaning you have less than one whole part. Understanding these fractions is super useful! For example, if you’re baking and the recipe calls for 1 1/2 cups of flour, that's a mixed fraction! When dividing a pizza, you can use proper fractions to show how much of the pizza everyone gets. Knowing how to work with these fractions can help make life easier in the kitchen or while sharing snacks!
