Answer:

43/18

Explanation:

2/3(1/3+ 3 1/4)

  • First solve parenthesis.

2/3(1/3+ 3 1/4)

find the lowest common denominator (12) to add the two fractions.

1/3= 4/12;

3 1/4= 13/4 = 39/12

4/12+ 39/12= 43/12

2/3(43/12)

  • Then multiply the fractions.

2/3(43/12)

Numerator: 2*43= 86

Denominator: 3*12= 36

86/36

  • Last simplify your fraction.

43/18 or 2 7/18
