Question

What does 3 3/5 * 2 5/7 equal

Answer 1

As a mixed number the answer to your question will be 9 27/35 or 6 3/7

The steps will be below.

Explanation:

You first have to convert theses mixed numbers to fractions.

3 3/5 ,multiply the 5x3=15 and add the 3 which will be 18/5.

Since we converted 3 3/5 to a fraction now it’s 2 5/7 turn!

2 5/7 will be 19/7 because 7x2=14 and 14+5 will give us 19/7.

Finally since we have our two fractions (18/5) and (19/7), it’s time to find the answer!

Now if we multiply both of the factions we get the answer.

18/5 X 19/7

= 9 27/35 or 6 3/7

(For 6 3/7 we have to multiply the whole numbers and the fractions to get that answer)

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

First, let's turn these into improper fractions. We keep the denominators and to find the new numerator you multiply the denominator by the whole number and add then numerator.

`(18)/(5) *(19)/(7) =(342)/(35) =9(27)/(35)`

Therefore, the answer is 9 27/35. Now you can multiply mixed numbers!

Have a wonderful day!
