The process is still that of addition.
a mixed number is a whole number with a fraction, ie. 2 3/4 Adding mixed numbers involves adding the whole numbers, then adding the fractions, then reducing the fraction and if it is improper, changing it to a whole number with a fraction and adding that whole number to the other whole number answer.
A mixed number is made up of two parts: an integer (whole) part and a fractional part.
To find the reciprocal of a mixed fraction, first convert the mixed fraction to an improper fraction. For example, if you have (2 \frac{3}{4}), convert it to (\frac{11}{4}) (by multiplying the whole number by the denominator and adding the numerator). The reciprocal is then obtained by flipping the improper fraction, resulting in (\frac{4}{11}). The reciprocal of a mixed fraction is not 1; it is a different fraction, unless the mixed fraction itself is 1.
To subtract mixed numbers, first separate the whole numbers from the fractions. Subtract the whole numbers, and then subtract the fractions. If the fraction from the first mixed number is smaller than the fraction from the second, convert one whole from the first mixed number into a fraction (by adding 1 or 1/1 to the fraction) to make the subtraction possible. Finally, simplify the result if necessary.
To divide mixed numbers, the first step is to convert each mixed number into an improper fraction. This involves multiplying the whole number by the denominator, adding the numerator, and placing that result over the original denominator. After converting both mixed numbers, you can then proceed to divide by multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.
when you add mixed numbers you have a whole number but adding fraction does not.

A mixed number is a fraction
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.

It is possible no to. But doing so makes it easier

It is the binary operation of multiplication which has two inputs, at least one of which comprises a mixed fraction: that is, a fraction which consists of an integer part and a part which is a proper fraction.
A mixed fraction is another way of writing fractions. Mixed fractions include a whole number and a fraction. For example, 2-1/2 is a mixed fraction. But it's equivalent value 5/2 is not a mixed fraction but an improper fraction.
