You may be tempted to solve math problems in your head, but when you’re first starting out it’s a good idea to write everything down, step by step. This way, if you make a mistake, it’s easy to go back and see what happened so you can fix it moving forward. Fractions are made up of 2 parts, the numerator (the top number) and the denominator (the bottom number), and they are separated with a straight, horizontal line. To write a mixed number, put the whole number on the left-hand side of the fraction. For example, let’s say the problem you’re solving for is 1 and 3/4 * 7 and 1/5. The first thing you need to do is change both of those mixed fractions into improper fractions, meaning that the numerator will be greater than the denominator. Here’s how to do this:   1 and 3/4 = 7/4 when it’s made into an improper fraction. The denominator will always stay the same when making improper fractions. Multiply the denominator by the whole number (4 *1) and add that answer to the current numerator (3). (4*1) + 3 = 7. For 7 and 1/5, multiply the denominator by the whole number (5*7) and add that answer to the current numerator (1). (5*7) + 1 = 36. Put the new numerator over the original denominator for your improper fraction. 7 and 1/5 = 36/5. to make the numbers easier to multiply. In the example given, we are left with 7/4 * 36/5. While you could just multiply the numerators and the denominators, it will be easier to do the math if you can simplify the fractions first. When simplifying, check to see if the cross numerator and denominator can be divided equally by the same number. 7 and 5 cannot be, but 36 and 4 are both equally divisible by 4. To get your simplified fraction:  Divide 4 by 4 to get 1, changing the first fraction from 7/4 to 7/1. Divide 36 by 4 to get 9, changing the second fraction from 36/5 to 9/5. You can also simplify single fractions if the numerator and denominator have a common factor. For example, if 7/4 were instead 8/4, you could simplify that fraction to 2/1. Now all you have to do is solve for your fraction by multiplying 7 * 9 to get 63 for the new numerator. Multiply 1 * 5 to get 5 for the new denominator. The final improper fraction is 63/5. get the final answer. To get back to a mixed number, you just need to do some simple division. Divide the numerator by the denominator, so 63/5. 5 goes into 63 12 times, with 3 left over. 12 becomes the whole number and 3 becomes the new numerator. The denominator of 5 stays the same. In the end,  1 and 3/4 * 7 and 1/5 = 12 and 3/5. If you can’t do the division in your head for the whole number, write it out on your piece of paper.
