Steps for multipling fractions and mixed numbers?
to multiply fractions add them together and reduce the final fraction. to multiply mixed numbers, first make the mixed number an improper fraction, by mulitplying the whole number and the denominator and adding the answer to the numerator. Example: The improper fraction 8/5 can be changed to the mixed number 1 3/5 by dividing the numerator (8) by the denominator (5). This gives a quotient of 1 and a remainder of 3. The remainder is placed over the divisor (5).
Numbers are all numbers that can be written as fractions?
Think of every singles number that you can think of. Then divide every single number that you can think of by every single number you can think of. These will give you all the numbers that can be written as fractions. In other words, Every single number can be written as a fraction. There are an infinite amount of possibilities.

How is adding fractions like adding whole numbers... How is it different?
Similarities: the sum does not depend on which number you start with (distributive)Differences: you must find a common denominator for the fractions (whole numbers have a common denominator [1]

the same as adding whole numbers. two negatives = negative. two positives = positive, and a negative and positive depends on the absolute value of the greater number.

When the numbers are greater than 1
How would you add two mixed numbers that contain unlike fractions?
you would convert the mixed numbers into fractions where the top number is greater than the bottom number, then multiply both the numerator and the denominator by a number that makes the denominators the same.
