Answer:

We conclude that:


20* \:3(1)/(5)=64

Explanation:

Given the expression


20\:* 3(1)/(5)

convert mixed number to improper fraction:
a(b)/(c)=(a* c+b)/(c)

i.e.
3(1)/(5)=(3* 5+1)/(5)=(16)/(5)

so the expression becomes


20\:* 3(1)/(5)\:=20* \:(16)/(5)

Factor the number: 20 = 5×4


=5* \:4* (16)/(5)

Cross-cancel common factor: 5


=4* \:16

Multiply the numbers: 4×16 = 64


=64

Therefore, we conclude that:


20* \:3(1)/(5)=64
