Mixed Numbers
---------------------------------------------------------------------
A mixed number is a
whole number with a proper fraction.
1. To multiply mixed numbers, you must first turn them into fractions. For both mixed numbers, multiply the denominator by the whole number and add the numerator, keeping the denominators the same.
2. Next, multiply straight across. You can leave the answer like this, or you can simplify the fraction by turning it back into a mixed number.
3. To turn it into a mixed number, first find the whole number. To do this, divide the numerator by the denominator. In the example below, since 10 goes into 56 five times, five is the whole number.
4. To find the numerator of the fraction, subtract 50 (10 times five) from 56. The denominator stays the same.
