First, convert the mixed number to a fraction. To do this, multiply the whole number part of the mixed number by the denominator of the fraction part of the mixed number and add this to the numerator. This number over the denominator is the converted mixed number. For example, 4 3/4 converts to 19/4, because (4 x 4) + 3 = 16 + 3 = 19.
Then, multiply the two fractions together, multiplying the numerators together and the denominators together. For example, 5/7 x 8/3 = (5 x 8)/(7 x 3) = 24/21.
Finally, reduce the resulting fraction if possible. In the above example, 24/21 can be reduced to 8/7 and then converted to mixed number 1 1/7.
Here is an example from start to finish:
4/7 x 3 1/16
Convert 3 1/16 to ((3 x 16) +1)/16 = (48 + 1)/16 = 49/16
Multiply both fractions 4/7 x 49/16 = 196/112
Reduce the result 196/112 becomes 7/4 and then 1 3/4

How do you divide a fraction and amixed number?
Convert the mixed number into an improper fraction then divide the fraction and improper fraction as normal (invert the divisor and multiply) and simplify the result (including converting any improper fraction into a mixed number)
How do you multiply a fraction and a whole number?
Multiply the fraction's numerator by the whole number, then reduce the improper fraction if necessary.Example : 3/4 x 6= (3 x 6) / 4 = 18/4 = 4 2/4 = 4 1/2
How do you multiply a mixed fraction by a mixed fractions?
If doing it without a calculator, then convert each mixed fraction into a top-heavy equivalent fraction and then multiply as for fractions.
How do you times mixed fractions?
My strategy for multiplying mixed fractions: what you need to do is turn the mixed number into an improper fraction before you do any thing else. to do that you need to multiply the denominator with the whole number then add the numerator. now that number will be your numerator the denominator stays the same then you do the same to the other mixed fraction turn it into an improper fraction then once both are like that you multiply the numerators together to find the numerator then you multiply the denominators together to get the denominator then simplify your answer to get the right answer.
How do you write mixed numbers as an inproper fraction?
Multiply the denominator by the whole number, then multiply that by the numerator. Put that answer over the original denominator.
How do you multiply a fraction bye a mixed fraction?
You would have to convert the mixed number into a fraction, or you could convert the fraction into a mixed number. The first one is easier in my opinion. For example: 2 3/4 is 11/4. Converting a fraction into a mixed number is just as easy but it is harder to multiply To multiply a mixed fraction by a fraction you will need to multiply the denominator (the bottom number of a fraction) by the whole number then add the numerator (the top number of a fraction) and that will be your new numerator. Then multiply the two fractions (straight across). Finally put you final answer in simplest form if needed.
How do you times a mixed fraction by a whole number?
As an example 2 3/5 X 7 First convert the mixed number to an improper fraqction Hence 2 3/5 = 13/5 Next we convert the '7' to an improper fraction by placing it over a trivial '1'. Hence '7' = '7/1'. Re-writing 13/5 x 7/1 We separate;y multiply the numerators together, and the denominators together. Hence 13/5 X 7/1 = 91/5 Finally we convert the improper fraction back to a mixed fraction by dividing by '5' , which will give an answer of '18' and a remainder of '1' Hence it is re-written as ' 18 1/5 '. The answer. NB Whenthe numbers become large , look to see if you can cancel down /reduce. So amending the above numbers slightly. 2 3/5 X 5 = > 13/5 X 5/1 In this case '5' is a common factor ; top & bottom'. so we cancel down by '5' Hence 13/1 X 1/1 proceeding as before. 13 / 1 = 13 The answer!!!!! These methods are good for any set of frqactional numbers.
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?
How do you divide mixed number with a proper fraction?
turn the fraction upside down and multiplyConvert the mixed number to an improper fraction and multiply it by the reciprocal of the fraction.
How do you mulitlpy mixed numbers and fraction?
Convert the mixed number into an improper fraction and then multiply like you normally would. To convert a mixed number into a fraction, take the whole number, multiply it by the denominator and then add the numerator. This value is your new numerator.
Can you multiply a negative fraction by a mixed number?
Yes
How do you divide a mixed number by a whole number?
You change the mixed number to an improper fraction, multiply its denominator by the whole number. Then, if required, convert back to a mixed fraction.
What are the steps of turning a mixed number into a fraction?
divide them and then multiply them.
How do you multiply a mixed fraction by a whole number?
You would turn the mixed number into a fraction by multiplying the whole number(the one in the mixed fraction) by the denominator and then you add the numerator to the product. You would then put that number you get and out it over the denominator. For the other whole number, you would put it over one and multiply the two fractions!
How do you write a mixed number or fraction as a percent?
For a fraction, divide the numerator by the denominator and multiply by 100 for a percentage. If it's a mixed number, you first have to convert it to an improper fraction then do the same thing as for a fraction.
