Mastering Multiplying Mixed Numbers

The video tutorial guides students through their homework on multiplying mixed numbers using three strategies: Yuri's break apart method, Takota's improper fraction conversion, and model verification. The teacher explains each method with examples, emphasizing the importance of active participation in IXL homework. Students are encouraged to submit their work via Camy or by sending a picture if done on paper.
