Let's start with 2/3 x 5/6. 2 x 5= 10, 3 x 6= 18. New fraction is 10/18 which is simplified to 5/9. Now do 5/9 x 14/1. 14 x 5= 70. It would then be 70/9 as an improper fraction. Now make a mixed fraction which is 7 7/9

you must multiply first the first two terms and then, once you have that result, you mutliply what you've got times the other number (14). Then you'll get the final result :)

Answer: 7 wholes and 63/81
