Answer:

Change the mixed number to an improper fraction

Ex:

2 4/5 * 6/7

change 2 and 4/5 to an improper fraction

2*5 = 10+4

14/5*6/7

then solve

In words:

You can multiply fractions and mixed numbers by just changing the mixed number to an improper fraction by multiplying the denominator by the whole number next to the fraction then adding the numerator after multiplying the denominator and whole number, and then it's a improper fraction.
