Explanation:

fractional oxidation number shows either presence of different oxidation state of different elements in the compound or average oxidation number of an element. example. fe3o4 if you find oxidation state of fe then it will come out to be 8/3 .it is only due to presences of fe and fe2o3 in the compound carrying +2 and +3 oxidation state .

hope it's helpful.
