To clarify a mixed number is made up of a whole number (whole numbers have no fractional or decimal part) and a proper fraction part (a fraction where the numerator (the top number) is less than the denominator (the bottom number). In this case the whole number value is 1 and the proper fraction value is 7/10.

Is 1.7 a terminating, recurring or an irrational decimal?
Terminating decimals have a limited number of digits after the decimal point.
Example:
9344.64 = 9344 64/100
Recurring decimals have one or more repeating numbers after the decimal point which continue on infinitely.
Example:
1081.3333 = 1081 3333/10000 = 333/1000 = 33/100 = 1/3 (rounded)
Irrational decimals go on forever and never form a repeating pattern. This type of decimal cannot be expressed as a fraction.
Example: 0.752641490.....
