You can turn them both into improper fractions and multiply across.

i.e., 3 * 5 1/8
3/1 * 41/8 = 123/8

Simplify and turn it back into a mixed number.

123/8 = 17 1/8

I hope that helped.

Whenever you have a whole number you just add 1 as the denominator for example, if your whole number is 2 the the fraction is 2/1. After you have done that you just multiply both fraction... So multiply the denominator with the denominator .. And so on
