Write the steps for multiplying mixed numbers in your notes:

•  1. Write mixed and whole numbers as fractions (popcorn mixed numbers and write whole numbers over one!)

•  2. Simplify early, if possible. •  3. Multiply the numerators and then the

denominators!

•  TAAA DAAAA!!!! Then you’re done! J

If whole numbers or mixed numbers appear in the multiplication problem, they must be changed into fractions before you can work the problem.
