A mixed number: 17/2 is:
\( 8 (1)/(2) \)

A mixed fraction, also known as a mixed number, is a mathematical representation of a whole number combined with a proper fraction.

It is composed of an integer part and a fractional part. Mixed fractions are often used to represent quantities that are not whole but include a fractional part.

To write the fraction
\( (17)/(2) \) as a mixed number, you divide the numerator (17) by the denominator (2) to get the whole number part and the remainder.


\[ (17)/(2) = 8 (1)/(2) \]

So, the correct answer is:
\( 8 (1)/(2) \)
