Part two

To multiply fractions, simply multiply the numerator with the numerator. And denominator with the other fraction's denominator. Simplify when necessary.

Before multiply, one must turn a mixed number into an improper fraction. To do that, multiply the denominator with the whole number. Then add the numerator. (See example in diagram) After that, we multiply like any other fraction. Once we got the answer, we must turn the improper fraction back into a mixed number and simplify when necessary.

For this one, all I did was turn both mixed number into an improper fraction. Then I multiplied and simplified.
