Convert them to improper fractions and proceed the same way you would multiply two fractions.
if you have mixed numbers you make them into improper fractions before you multiply
Convert the mixed number to an improper fraction and proceed normally.
Convert them to improper fractions and proceed. The answer will be positive.
you have to turn them into improper fractions before you multiply them.
First change the mixed numbers into improper fractions by multiplying the denominator and the whole number and add the product to the numerator in the mixed numbers and then multiply the numerators and the denominators and divide the numerator by the denominator of the product.
First convert the mixed numbers into "top heavy (or "improper) fractions". Now multiply each of the improper fractions by each other - this makes the denominators the same. Now you can add both the fractions together (and cancel down if necessary).
To find a volume you usually need to multiply values together. When working with mixed numbers it is usually easier to convert them into improper fractions, do the calculations and convert any resulting improper fraction into a mixed number. So you don't need to use either format, it's just that improper fractions are easier to manipulate.
Mixed numbers can be converted to improper fractions. Improper fractions can be added the same way proper fractions are.
First you change them into improper fractions. Then you multiply the numerator and the denamanator straight across. ;)
