Take the whole number and make it that number over one.
For example:
2/3 * 4 = 2/3 * 4/1 = 8/3
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.
Changing a whole number to a fraction does not change the product when multiplying by that number. For example, the whole number 3 can be expressed as the fraction 3/1, and multiplying by either form yields the same result. Thus, the product remains unchanged regardless of whether you use the whole number or its fractional equivalent.

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.
The product of a proper fraction and a whole number results in a smaller number than the whole number, maintaining the same basic numerical relationship as multiplying two proper fractions, which also yields a smaller number. However, the key difference lies in the nature of the multiplicands; a whole number has a value greater than or equal to one, while a proper fraction is always less than one. Consequently, when multiplying a proper fraction by a whole number, the result is a proper fraction or whole number, whereas the product of two proper fractions will always be a proper fraction.
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!
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.
