Ready for a multiplication challenge? Today, you'll practice using this skill on fractions. To take things up a notch, one or both numbers in each set can be a mixed number. Follow the step-by-step guide, then complete the activity.

When multiplying fractions, especially mixed numbers, you will use different fraction forms. First, convert any mixed number into an improper fraction. Then, multiply the numerators and the denominators separately. Next, if the numerator and denominator share common factors, simplify the fraction to an equivalent fraction. Finally, if this simplest fraction is improper, rewrite it as a mixed number.
