First find a common denominator (The bottom part)

24

now times that to the top part

8 × 3 = 24 so 7 × 3 = 21
3 × 8 = 24 so 10 × 8 = 80
14 × 2 = 24 so 5 × 2 = 10

21/24 × 80/24 × 10/24 = 16,800/24

simplify

400/ 7 or 57 1/7

(7)/(8) * (10)/(3) * (5)/(14)

(7)/(8) ((10)/(3))((5)/(14))

(35)/(12) ( (5)/(14)) = (25)/(24)
ANSWER

(25)/(24)
