(22 1/5) * 12: a couple of ways to do this are, convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction:

22 1/5 = 111/5, then multiply * 12 = 1332/5 = (1330/5) + 2/5 = 266 2/5

or treat it like distributing the multiplication into each term inside the parenthesis:

(22 1/5) * 12 = (22 + 1/5) * 12 = 22*12 + (1/5)*12 = 264 + 12/5 = 264 + 10/5 + 2/5 = 266 2/5

the 2nd method is my preference.
