form them into proper fractions: 288 and 3/4 is equal to what? 4 and 1/8 is equal to what? after you have this, it becomes pretty easy. just multiply 1155/4 * 33/8

my teacher said something about flipping the second fraction, then to multiply it.....?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, if you have a fraction like 1/2 divided by 1/2, that is actually 1/2 * 2/1 or 1 same in this case. if you divide a fraction, multiply by the opposite
