When multiplying a mixed number with a mixed number, sometimes I see students making this common mistake! Before we multiply, converting mixed numbers to improper fractions is the easiest way to multiply mixed fractions! I will show you an example with a mixed number times a mixed number, how to convert each of them into improper fractions, multiply them, and finally turn that improper fraction into a mixed number.

Hi, my name is Beth, and I am passionate about helping students not only understand math concepts, but feel more confident in their own abilities to learn new math skills. When students are struggling, I encourage them to use alternative methods to help them find what works best for them. I also help them find connections to previously learned math concepts that could help them better understand newer or more challenging concepts!
