How do you multiply fraction by another fraction or a whole number?

What are mixed fractions and how do they work?
Mixed Fractions are fractions that have whole numbers and fractions on the side.If you are trying to change them into improper fractions you take the denominator of the fraction and multiply it by the whole number and keep the same numerator. ex.: 2 and one fourth =
How do you get a fraction of another fraction?
To get a fraction of another fraction you have to multiply the fractions. To multiply fractions, just use this simple algorithm: Step 1-Turn all whole numbers and mixed numbers into improper fractions. Step 2-Multiply the numerators of the 2 fractions. The answer to that problem will be the numerator of the answer. Step 3-Multiply the denominators of the 2 fractions. The answer to that problem will be the denominator of the answer. Step 4-Reduce.
When multiplying mixed numbers do you have to multiply the whole numbers or just the fractions?
More than that. You need to multiply the whole number, the farctions AND cross multiply the whole numbers and the fractions. Then add together all the answers. Thus, 23/4 * 56/7 = 2*5 + (3/4*6/7) + 2*6/7 + 3/4*5 Actually, it is far simpler to convert the mixed fractions to improper (top heavy) fractions, and then multiply the numerators together to give the numerator of the answer and multiply the denominators together to give the denominators of the answer.

Why is it when you multiply a number by a fraction you get a lesser number?
Because fractions aren't whole numbers

Do you flip the denominator when you multiply?
No, you flip the whole fraction which follows the division sign.
How do you multiply fractions with whole numbers and mixed numbers?
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?
What does it mean to multiply and divide fractions?
multiply and divide fractions!-.-
What are 3 equivalent fractions of whole number 6?
The whole number, 6, can be written as 6/1. You can then calculate equivalent rational fractions if you multiply both, its numerator and denominator, by any non-zero integer.
