Answer:

Explanation:

For this problem you want to change the mixed numbers into improper fractions. THIS MAKES YOUR LIFE 10 TIMES EASYIER! Anyway so it would be:

49/8 x 22/7 x 9/4

49/8 x 22/7 = 1078/56

Now you have to multiply that number by 9/4 which is

1078/56 x 9/4= which gives you 9702/224

To make you do some work PLEASE change that into a mixed number so your teacher doesnt yell at you!
