Multiply the numerator of the fraction by the whole number for the new numerator. The denominator remains the same. Then, see if the fraction can be simplified. Also, you may wish to convert improper fractions into mixed numbers.Example 1: 6 * (4/9)6*4 = 24 so the product is 24/9. This can be simplified (common factor 3) to 8/3, which as a mixed number is 2 2/3.Example 2: 2 * (4/9)2*4 = 8 so the product is 8/9. This cannot be simplified.
