First find how many 12s are there in 45. There are 3 twelves in 45. Multiply 3 by 12. You will get 36. Minus this 36 from 45. You will get 9. So the mixed no is 3 9/12. To check whether it is right. Multiply the denominator with the no on the side and add the result with numerator. You will get the fractional no.
