A mixed number is written as Quotient (Remainder/Divisor) and is formed of an improper fraction. It consists of a natural number and a fraction.

Firstly, one has to find the whole number for the mixed number. Divide the numerator with the denominator. 

Then, get the new numerator for the fraction.

This will lead to giving us a mixed fraction.

Here,

(i) When 7 is divided by 4, the quotient is 1, the remainder is 3 and the divisor is 4. 7/4 will be written as 1 3/4 as a mixed number.

(ii) When 11 is divided by 4, the quotient is 2, the remainder is 3 and the divisor is 4. 11/4 will be 2 3/4 as a mixed number.

Hence, it is very easy to write fractions in a mixed form.
