When multiplying a fraction by a whole number you would rewrite it as a mixed number or convert the whole number to that number over one!
The numerator of the fraction is multiplied by the whole number.
To divide a whole number by a fraction, you can rewrite the fraction as a whole number by multiplying the denominator by the whole number. Then, divide the resulting whole number by the numerator of the fraction. This process is equivalent to multiplying the whole number by the reciprocal of the fraction.
When multiplying a fraction by a whole number, you should rewrite the whole number as a fraction. Do this by placing the number over a denominator of one.
No, you don't.
A general rule for multiplying fractions: You shall not multiply the denominator by the whole number,only the numerator.Another rule is you shall make the whole number as a fraction by putting the whole number as the numerator and 1 as the denominator before multiplying it.
greater than
Generally, the quotient of a whole number divided by a fraction will be greater than that whole number, because division is simply multiplying the dividend by the reciprocal of the divisor. For instance: 2 / (1/2) = 2 * (2/1)
by multiplying the denominator with the whole number and adding the numerator. the denominator will remain the same.
Multiplying by percentage is easy. All you have to do is convert the percentage into a fraction and then into a whole number.
You multiply the denominator by the whole number, then you add what you got from multiplying the denominator by the whole number by the numerator! An example:13/4 would equal 7/4 as a improper fraction!
the answer is smaller than the whole number because you're taking a fraction of the second number. it's like multiplying by a decimal.
