If the numerator is less than the denominator is called a proper
fraction.
Proper fraction:

If the denominator is less than the numerator is called a
improper fraction.
Improper fraction:

Divide the numerator by the denominator.
Writing an improper fraction as a mixed number
If there is a remainder, write the remainder over the original denominator.

Multiply the denominator of the fraction by the whole-number portion of the mixed number.
Writing a mixed number as an improper fraction
Add the numerator of the fraction to that product.
Write that sum over the original denominator to form the improper fraction.

Representing proper fractions on a Representing proper fractions on a number linenumber line
1. Divide the distance between zero and 1 into as many parts as the denominator of the proper fraction.
2. Start from zero, and move as many parts as the numerator to the right. The end point is the image point of the proper fraction.
