1 1/6 times 4 2/3.

To do questions like these (questions with mixed fractions), we would have to take those mixed fractions and turn them into an improper fraction.

First fraction: 1 1/6

To turn that first fraction into an improper fraction, we would have to multiply the whole number with the denominator and then add the numerator.

First fraction: 6*1+1 /6=7/6

Second fraction: 4 2/3

Second Fraction: 4*3+2 /3= 14/3

Now we multiply the two fractions together.

7/6 × 14/3= 98/18

Simplify the fraction.

5 4/9

~Hope I helped!~
