Answer:

51 3/5

Explanation:


(2)/(3) *8(3)/(5) * 9\\ turn the mixed number into an improper fraction first. So, turn

8 3/5 into 43/5.

Also, turn the 9 into 9/1 to make it easier to multiply with

Now multiply all together:

2/3 * 43/5* 9/1

= 774/15

Simplify:

i divided both numerator and denominator with 3 because that is a common factor

=258/5

Answer= 51 3/5 is the mixed number
