Mixed fractions

Half of each of the three circles is coloured. That is, 3 parts, each equal to 12 of the circle, are coloured.

The coloured part is 12 + 12 + 12, that is, 32 or 1 + 12.

1 + 12 is written as 1 12. 1 12 is read as ‘one and one upon two’.

In the fraction 1 12, 1 is the integer part and 12 is the fraction part. Hence, such fractions are called mixed fractions or mixed numbers. 2 14, 3 25, 7 49 are all mixed fractions.

Fractions in which the numerator is greater than the denominator are called improper fractions.

32, 53 are improper fractions. We can convert improper fractions into mixed fractions.

For example,

The Clever Poet

There was a king who had a great love for literature. A certain poet knew that if the king read a good poem it made him very happy. Then the king would give the poet an award. Once, the poet composed a good poem. He thought if he showed it to the king, he would win a prize. So, he went to the king’s palace. But, it was not easy to meet the king. You had to pass a number of gates and guards. The first guard asked the poet why he wanted to meet the king. So, the poet told him the reason. Seeing the chance of getting a share of the award, the guard demanded, ‘You must

give me 110 of your prize. Only then will I let you go in.’ The poet could do nothing but agree. The second guard stopped him and said, ‘I will let you go in only if you promise me 25 of your prize.’ The third guard, too, was a greedy man. He said, ‘I will not let you go, unless you promise me 14 of your prize.’ The king’s palace was just a little distance away. Now, the poet told the guard, ‘Why only 14, I shall give you half the prize!’ The guard was pleased and let him in.

The king liked the poem. He asked the poet, ‘What is the prize you want?’ ‘I shall be happy if Your Majesty awards me 100 lashes of the whip.’ The king was surprised. ‘Are you out of your mind!’ he exclaimed. ‘I have never met anyone so crazy as to ask for a whipping !’

‘Your Majesty, if you wish to know the reason, the three palace guards must be called here.’ When the guards came, the poet explained, ‘Your Majesty, all of them have a share in the 100 lashes that you have awarded to me. Each of them has fixed his own share of the prize I get. The first guard

must get 110 of the award, that is, [ ] lashes. The second must get 25, which is [ ], and the third must get half the award, that is, [ ] lashes !’ The king could now see how greedy the guards were and how clever the poet was. He saw to it that each guard got the punishment he deserved. He gave the poet a prize for his poem. He also gave him an extra 100 gold coins for exposing the greed of the guards.

What was the clever idea of the poet which the king appreciated so much?
