No need to estimate. Example:
1 2/3 times 4 and 3/4 are mixed numbers. Convert them to fractions. You take the denominator (the bottom number) and multiply it be the whole number, and add to that the numerator (the top number). Then place that over the original denominator.
Thus it is 5/3 times 19/4.
Now multiply 5 times 19 to get 95. That will be the answer's numerator. Multiply 3 times 4 to get 12. That will be the answer's denominator.
Thus the answer is 95/12 or as a mixed number again, simply divide 95 by 12 to get 7 with a remainder of 11. The seven is the whole number and the remainder of 11 is placed over the original denominator of 12.
Thus 7 and 11/12ths.

First change the mixed numbers into improper fractions by multiplying the denominator and the whole number and add the product to the numerator in the mixed numbers and then multiply the numerators and the denominators and divide the numerator by the denominator of the product.
just multiply.
if you have mixed numbers you make them into improper fractions before you multiply
Convert them to improper fractions and proceed. The answer will be positive.
