Answer:

Yes, the sum of two mixed numbers can be equal to 2 but only of one of the mixed numbers is negative.

Explanation:

The reason is that a mixed number is a combination of an integer and a fraction. This means that all positive mixed numbers are greater than 1 and adding two positive mixed numbers together will be greater than 2.
