Yes, turn all the mixed numbers into improper fractions. Then once they are all improper fractions multiply the numerator and denominator of all of them together. Then simplify.
2 3/4 = 11/4
1 1/8 = 9/8
3 5/6 = 23/6
Numerators: 11 x 9 x 23
Denominators: 4 x 8 x 6
Numerator total: 2277
Denominator total: 192
Your fraction answer is 2277/192
Now simplify.
That would be 11 165/192
165/192 can be simplified because they’re both divisible by 3.
55/64
Now your numbers can’t be simplified anymore.
11 55/64 is your final answer. :]

turn 2 3/4 into a proper fraction
multiply the denominator by the whole number and add the numerator. Put that all over the denominator
2 3/4 = (4 x 2 + 3)/4 = 11/4
do this for all the other pairs
Hope this helps
