Answer: 4 and 2/3

Step-by-step explanation: To multiply a mixed number by a mixed number, first write each mixed number as an improper fraction.

We can write 2 and 4/5 as the improper fraction 14/5.

We can also write 1 and 2/3 as the improper fraction 6/3.

Now we have 14/5 × 6/3.

To multiply fractions, we simply multiply across the numerators and multiply across the denominators.


((14)/(5)) ((5)/(3)) =(70)/(15)

We can write 70/15 as the mixed number 4 and 2/3.

Therefore, 2 and 4/5 x 1 and 2/3 = 4 and 2/3
