Question

(Can someone please HELP me on this and can you please show the steps.)

Reduce all of your answers to simple fractions, mixed numbers, or improper fractions.
1. 2 2/5 x 3 1/3=
2. (3/8) (4/7)=
3. 3 3/5 x 4 4/7=
4. 7/9 x 27/21=
5. 5 x 3/4=

Answer 1

Well for 2. (3/8) (4/7) = 12/56=3/14

Answer 2

it is pretty straight forward. convert each number to a fraction like 2 2/5=12/5 and perform the multiplication and then reduce the fraction.

Answer 3

reduce first, multiply last. it is much easier that way

Answer 4

\[5 \times \frac{ 3}{4}=\frac{5\times 3}{4}=\frac{15}{4}\]
for the last one

Answer 5

if you need mixed number answers \[\frac{15}{4}=3\tfrac{3}{4}\]
