It helps if you change the mixed number into an improper fraction. After you do that you can multiply the improper fraction and the whole number. **hint if you put the whole number over 1 it will make it easier to multiply
For example:
Multiply 3 and 1/2 by 8
1) change 3 and 1/2 to an improper fraction. It would be 7/2
2) put 8 over one in a fraction. It would be 8/1
3) multiply 7/2 by 8/1
- first multiply the numerators
7 x 8= 56
- second multiply the denominators
2 x 1= 2
4) reduce your answer (56/2)
It would be 28
And that is how you multiply a mixed number with a whole number
To convert a mixed number to an improper fraction, multiply the denominator by the whole number, add that total to the numerator and put the whole thing over the original denominator.
Multiply the denominator by the whole number, add that total to the numerator and put the whole thing over the original denominator.
To convert a mixed number to an improper fraction, multiply the denominator by the whole number, add that total to the numerator and put the whole thing over the original denominator.
You take the whole number and multiply it by the denomonator and and your product to the numerator ,then you keep the same denomonator
Multiply the denominator by the whole number, add the numerator, and put the total over the denominator.
The question is ambiguous. Do you want to know how to multiply a fraction by a whole number, as well as by a mixed number? Or are you asking how to multiply a whole number by a mixed number and express the product as a fraction? Or what?
You change the mixed number to an improper fraction, multiply its denominator by the whole number. Then, if required, convert back to a mixed fraction.
Multiply the denominator by the whole number, or divide the numerator by the whole number
Convert the mixed fraction to an improper fraction, multiply by the whole number, convert the answer back to a mixed fraction (if required).
You would turn the mixed number into a fraction by multiplying the whole number(the one in the mixed fraction) by the denominator and then you add the numerator to the product. You would then put that number you get and out it over the denominator. For the other whole number, you would put it over one and multiply the two fractions!
To divide a whole number by a mixed number, you must first make the mixed number an improper fraction. You can do this by multiplying the denominator (the bottom number) by the whole number and adding the numerator (the top number) to the product. Once you have done this, take the reciprocal of the improper fraction (simply switch the two numbers around) and multiply it the whole number. Multiply everything out, make it a mixed number, and you're done. (Note: You may have to make the whole number a fraction to multiply it properly. To do this, simply place the whole number in the numerator and make the denominator 1.)
The majority of mixed numbers will convert to improper fractions. To convert a mixed number to an improper fraction, multiply the denominator by the whole number, add that total to the numerator and put the whole thing over the original denominator.
You multiply the whole number by the denominator and then you add that number to he numerator
To convert a mixed number to an improper fraction, multiply the denominator by the whole number, add that total to the numerator and put the whole thing over the original denominator.
Convert the mixed number into an improper fraction and then multiply like you normally would. To convert a mixed number into a fraction, take the whole number, multiply it by the denominator and then add the numerator. This value is your new numerator.
Multiply by 4: eg 13 = 52/4
Convert the mixed number to an improper fraction and multiply it by the reciprocal of the whole number. 5 and 3/4 divided by 8 = 23/4 x 1/8
