Recall that multiplication by a
whole number can be
represented as repeated
addition. For example, 4 • 5 =
5 + 5 + 5 + 5. You can
multiply a whole number by a
fraction using the same
method.

There is another way to multiply with fractions.
Remember that a whole number can be written as
an improper fraction with 1 in the denominator.

Multiply denominators
Notice that when you multiply a proper fraction and
a number greater than 1, the product is between
the factors.

Mixed Numbers
•

•
Because of the order of operations,
Mixed numbers cannot be multiplied as is
Change mixed numbers to improper fractions, then
multiply.

Cancelling
Reduce before you multiply

Reducing before multiplying is called
canceling.

Say “--- goes into ____ this many times.”
As you cross each number out and write what is
left after canceling above the number.
