Answer:

170/12 or 85/6.

Explanation:

First, change the mixed numbers by multiplying the whole number to the denominator then adding the numerator to that number; keep the denominator the same.

5 1/3 - 5x3+1= 16/3

2 3/4 - 2x4+3= 11/4

Then, multiply those fractions. First, multiply the numerators, then the denominators.

16/3 x 11/4 = 170/12

And if you want to simplify, divide the numerator and denominator by 2. That will leave you with 85/6.
