i guess you mean *multiply :)
anyway, let's take this example:
3 x 4/12. First, if possible, we simplify the problem. In this case, the fraction can simplify into 1/3.
our problem looks like this: 3x1/3
To make it easier, we make the whole number have a 1 underneath it.
3/1 x 1/3 (3/1 is exactly the same as 3) now we multiply the tops and the bottoms together.
3x1 = 3, and 1x3 = 3 so our problem looks like this 3/3. 3 divided by 3 is 1. So 3x4/12 = 1 and that is how you do it. Hope i helped!

How do you make a whole number to a fraction?
Let 1 be the denominator and your whole number the numerator. e.g. 4 -> 4/1
When can a fraction have non-zero whole number value?
A fraction can have non-zero whole number value when the improper fraction is such that the numerator is an exact (whole number) multiple (which is not zero) of the denominator will the fraction have a whole number value. for example 10/5 = (5×2)/(5×1) = 2/1 = 2 ÷ 1 = 2.
