No because to make it a mixed number you need a whole number involved and a fraction. The smallest well whole number is one and one plus one is two. Therefore no even having room for the fractions you needed to add up as well. Sorry if that was confusing I tried to explain it my best. Hope I helped.

Yes, the sum of two mixed numbers can equal two. For example, 1 1/2 and 1/2 sum to two. Different combinations of whole numbers and fractions can provide various ways to achieve a total of two.
