Multiplying Mixed Numbers — Easy Worksheet 1
Grade 5 · Whoobee Name: ____________________ Date: __________
Multiply. Write each answer in simplest form, as a whole number or a mixed number when it is 1 or more.
How to solve
Change each mixed number to an improper fraction: multiply the whole number by the denominator and add the numerator, so 2 13 = 73. Write a whole number over 1 (4 = 41). Multiply the numerators and multiply the denominators: 73 × 41 = 283. Then change the answer back to a mixed number and simplify: 283 = 9 13. Check with an estimate: 2 13 × 4 should be a little more than 2 × 4 = 8.
Example
2 34 × 4 = ___
Answer: 11
Not quite. The answer is
💡 Change 1 23 to an improper fraction: 1 × 3 + 2 = 5, so 1 23 = 53. Multiply the numerator by 4: 5 × 4 = 20. Keep the denominator: 203. 203 is more than 1: 20 ÷ 3 = 6 R 2, so 203 = 6 23.
✓ Correct!
