All you have to do to solve this problem is multiply the fractions. Your work should look like this:

3 1/5 * 3/4 *Make 3 1/5 into an improper fraction to make it easier ****

3 1/5 = 16/5 * Now multiply *************************************************

16/5 * 3/4 = 48 / 20

The answer you should have now is 48/20, but you are not finished yet ebcause 48/20 can be simplified. Simplify 48/20.

48/20 = 2 8/20 = 2 2/5

Your simplified answer should be 2 2/5

The answer is 2 2/5 because you first turn the mixed number into a improper fraction, then multiply it by 3/4 to get 48/20 then simplify.
