Given:


3(1)/(6)*(3)/(7)

Simplify the fraction,


\begin{gathered} 3(1)/(6)*(3)/(7)=(3+(1)/(6))*(3)/(7) \\ =((3*6)+1)/(6)*(3)/(7) \\ =(19)/(6)*(3)/(7) \\ =(19)/(2*7) \\ =(19)/(14) \end{gathered}

Answer:


\begin{gathered} 3(1)/(6)*(3)/(7)=(19)/(14) \\ In\text{ mixed fraction,} \\ 3(1)/(6)*(3)/(7)=1(5)/(14) \end{gathered}
