I can't tell you the answers cause that's cheating but I can explain how to do it.
Let's use number 1 for an example. It says 1/2 x 2 1/3. First what we want to do is turn all mixed numbers into fractions. So how to do that is take the whole number, in this case 2, and multiply it by the denominator, which in this case is 3. The answer you will get is 6. Then you have to add the numerator onto that, which means 6 + 1 = 7. So now the equation is 1/2 + 7/3. Now you can just multiply both numerators and denominators, so 1 x 7 and 2 x 3, and you will get 7/6, which can be converted to 1 1/6. Apply this method to any of those problems.

Hope this helped!
