Multiplying a fraction by a whole number follows the same rules as multiplying two fractions. A whole number can be considered to be a fraction with a denominator of 1. Therefore when a fraction is multiplied by a whole number the numerator of the fraction is multiplied by the whole number. The denominator is multiplied by 1 which does not change the denominator.
