In Mathematics, mixed number to decimal is the conversion of the mixed fraction to the decimal number. We can represent the decimal number in the fraction and vice versa. For example, ½ is a fraction, and its decimal representation is 0.5. As we know, the fraction can be classified into different types like a proper fraction, improper fraction and mixed fraction. A mixed fraction is also known as the mixed number, and it is the combination of a whole number and a fraction.
