Answer:

The product of this equation will be greater than 12,400

Explanation:

Make this an expression

12,400x1 1/5

Now, Solve this expression

-make 1 1/5 an improper fraction

12,400x 6/5

-multiply the numerators by the numerators and the denominators by the denominators... remember that a whole number's decimal is always 1

12,400/1 x 6/5

12,400x6= 74400

1x5=5

74400/5= 14880

Is 14880 less than or greater than 12400? It is greater.
