Answer:


(1 + (x)/(y)) = 1(x)/(y), where x and y both are integers and x < y.


1(1)/(2)

Explanation:

Any number between 1 and 2 is a mixed fraction in the form (1 + proper fraction)

Let, the proper fraction be
(x)/(y), where x and y are integers and x < y, then we can write the number as
(1 + (x)/(y)) = 1(x)/(y).

Now, the proper fraction
(x)/(y), can have any combination of values of x and y where x and y are integers and x < y like
(1)/(2) , (2)/(3), (1)/(3), ....... etc.

An example of a mixed fraction that comes between 1 and 2 may be
1(1)/(2). (Answer)
