How do you solve mixed fractions?
It depends what type, such as multiplication, division, subtraction, or addition. Be more descriptive!
When working with fractions and mixed numbers what 2 operations require that you find common denominators before beginning to work?
those two operations are addition and subtraction.
How can use subtraction to check addition with mixed numbers?
Subtraction is the opposite operation to addition, so can be used to check an addition by subtracting one of the addends (numbers being added together) from the total obtained to see if the other addend results. This can be used with any two addends including mixed numbers. Working with mixed numbers is often much easier (especially for multiplication and division) by converting them first to improper fractions, doing the operations and converting any resultant improper fraction back to a mixed number.
How do you subtract mixed form by another mixed form?
The easiest is to convert both mixed form numbers to improper fractions, do the subtraction (as normal1) and if the result is an improper fraction convert it to mixed form. 1 by converting the improper fractions to equivalent [improper] fractions with a common denominator and subtracting the resultant numerators.
When dividing fractions or mixed numbers?
what is dividing fractions and mixed numebers
Why change mixed numbers to improper fractions?
For addition, subtraction, division and multiplication with other fractions

How do you add and subtract mixed numbers?
SUBTRACTION: You first turn both mixed numbers into improper fractions. If needed, change the denominators into like denominators. Next, subtract the two improper fractions and reduce if necessary. ADDITION: If needed, turn denominators so they are the same number. Next, add and reduce if necessary.
Why the result of addition of two mixed number is not always a mixed number?
The fractions could add up to a whole number.
Are mixed fractions rational?
Yes, mixed fractions are rational
When asked to find the sum of two mixed numbers with different denominators you should before you add?
Convert the fractions into equivalent fractions with the same denominator. In actually adding mixed numbers, it is easier to convert the mixed numbers into improper (top heavy) fractions, do the addition, simplify the resulting fraction and convert any resulting improper fraction back into a mixed number.
When dividing fractions or mixed numbers?

What is multipyling mixed fractions?
It is a process by which the product of mixed fractions is calculated.
A subtraction problem with mixed numbers where you need to rename?
It is still a subtraction problem.
