#15 4/25#

Explanation:

A mixed number is the combination of a whole number and a fraction.

With the number #15.16#, the whole number would be #15#, and you'd have to create the fraction from the decimal part, #0.16.#

You would change #0.16# into the fraction #16/100#. You could further simplify it into #4/25#.

You would combine the two parts as #15 4/25#.
