Two formulas for the multiplicity of the fiber cone $F\left( I \right)\,=\,\oplus _{n=0}^{\infty }{{I}^{n}}/\text{m}{{I}^{n}}$ of an $\text{m}$-primary ideal of a $d$-dimensional Cohen–Macaulay local ring $\left( R,m \right)$ are derived in terms of the mixed multiplicity ${{e}_{d-1}}\left( \text{m }|I \right)$, the multiplicity $e\left( I \right)$, and superficial elements. As a consequence, the Cohen–Macaulay property of $F\left( I \right)$ when $I$ has minimal mixed multiplicity or almost minimal mixed multiplicity is characterized in terms of the reduction number of $I$ and lengths of certain ideals. We also characterize the Cohen–Macaulay and Gorenstein properties of fiber cones of $\text{m}$-primary ideals with a $d$-generated minimal reduction $J$ satisfying $\ell \left( {{I}^{2}}/JI \right)\,=\,1$ or $l\left( Im \right)Jm) = 1$.
