Question

What is 5/8 multiplied by 5 as a mixed number??

Answer 1

25/8 or 3 1/8

Explanation:

5/8 * 5/1 (aka 5)

5/1 equals to 5 because any whole number over 1 equals the same whole number.

To multiply fractions, just multiply across. In the case. 5 time 5 for the numerator. Then 8 times 1 for the denominator.

= 25/8 = 3 1/8

Answer 2

3 1/8
