9 x 8 2/3.

First, make 9 a fraction: 9=9/1.

Then, make 8 2/3 a improper fraction: 8 2/3=26/3.

Now, we multiply: 9/1×26/3=234/3.

Finnally, we simplify: 234/3=78.

Therefore, the answer is 78.

The answer is 78. This is because you change 8 2/3 into a improper fraction which is 26/3. Then do 26/3×9/1. You should cross cancel so cancel out 3 and change it into 1 and change 9 into 3. So now your problem is 26×3=78.
