3.

first, we have to express the mixed number as a simple fraction :

3 1/4

For the numerator (top number) we have to multiply the whole number (3) by the denominator ( bottom number =4) and add the numerator (1). The denominator stays the same

(3x4+1)/4 = 13/4

Now, we can multiply


(13)/(4)\text{ }*(2)/(3)

Multiply the top number and the bottom numbers:


((13*2))/((4*3))
(26)/(12)

Simplify by 2


(13)/(6)
