We call a fraction improper when the numerator is larger than its denominator. For example, \(\frac{10}{3}\). There is nothing wrong or bad about improper fractions; they occur all around us, like regular fractions. Imagine, for example, sharing ten candy bars among three people. Everyone will receive \(\frac{10}{3}\) of a candy bar.
