Mixed Numbers/Fractions.
Here is an example of multiplication.
2 2/5 X 3 4/7
First convert to improper(top heavy) fractions.
12/5 X 25/7
Cancel down(reduce) if possible. In this case by '5'.
Hence
12/1 X 5/7
Multiply the numerators(top) numbers together. Then multiply the denominators(bottom) numbers together.
Hence
60/7
Convert back to a mixed number/fraction, by dividing '60' by '7.
60/7 = 8 4/7 ( The answer).
Here is an example of Division
4 1/ 7 divide 3 4/5
Again convert to improper fractions.
29/7 divide 19/5
This next bit is very important. 'CHANGE THE SIGN TO MULTIPLY AND INVERT(TURN OVER) THE RIGHT HAND FRACTION.' Then proceed as multiplication.
Hence
29/7 X 5/19
Cancel down if appropriate. We cannot cancel down in this case , as there are no common factors 'top and bottom'.
Multiply the numerators(top) numbers together. Then multiply the denominators(bottom) numbers together.
Hence
145/133
Reduce to a mixed number/fraction
1 12/133 The Answer!!!!!
