Lets call the whole number 'a' and the mixed number 'b c/d'. The latter is equal to b + c/d.
a * (b + c/d) = a*b + a*c/b -which mean you can multiply the integer of the mixed number by 'a' and the fraction by 'a' - then add them together.
An example: 3 * 2½ = 3*2 + 3*½ = 6 + 3/2 = 6+ 1+½ = 7½

Whole numbers can't be mixed numbers.
You don't. Mixed numbers and whole numbers are separate things.
Change each mixed fraction to an improper fraction. Do this by multiplying the denominator by the whole number next to the fraction and then adding the numerator to the product you get. Once you do this, multiply fractions normally.
