Explanation
Fixed means something that is set, not changing, or repaired. For example, if a chair was broken and now it works again, it is fixed. It can also describe something that cannot move or be changed, like a fixed schedule or price. In another sense, it means decided or arranged, such as “a fixed meeting time.” The word is often used to show that something is stable, steady, or repaired. “Fixed” (past verb form) also comes from the verb “fix”, showing that something has been made right or is now permanent, like the plumber fixed the leaking tap
