To make it easier to find the answer, you can switch to decimals

2 (3)/(4) = 2.75

3 (1)/(4) = 3.25
Now you multiply them together

2.75 × 3.25 = 8.9375

From there, you don't have to do more math because you can tell the answer is D because of the whole number


The answer is D


Hope this helps!
