Answer: 28 7/32

Step-by-step explanation: To multiply fractions, first multiply across the numerators or top numbers and then multiply across the denominators or bottom numbers.

Image provided.

Notice however that 903/32 can be converted into a mixed number by dividing the denominator into the numerator. 32 divides into 908 28 times with a remainder of 7. So we put 28 as our whole number, the remainder of 7 as our new numerator and our original denominator on bottom.
