This is not necessary here, because no further reduction is possible. Chapter 1 Fractions and Decimals 43 MATH TIP When multiplying a fraction by a nonzero whole number, first convert the whole number to a fraction with a denominator of 1; the value of the number remains the same. EXAMPLE 3 ■ 2 3 ϫ4 1. No terms to cancel. (You cannot cancel 2 and 4, because both are numerators. ) Convert the whole number to a fraction. 2 2 4 3 ϫ4ϭ3ϫ1 2. Multiply numerators and denominators: 2 4 8 3ϫ1ϭ3 3. Convert to a mixed number.
