Can you multiply the whole numbers and then the fractions? - Answers

If you mean a mixed fraction, yes, that is possible, due to the distributive property. For example, since 3 1/2 means 3 + 1/2, 2 x (3 1/2) = (2 x 3) + (2 x 1/2). However, if both numbers are mixed, you have to multiply each part by each other part and add everything together - for example, (4 1/3) x (7 1/2) = (4 x 7) + (4 x 1/2) + (1/3 x 7) + (1/3 x 1/2. While this procedure is correct, it is often easier to convert the fractions to improper fractions.
