1. 3 x 2 = 6 2/3 x 2 = 4/3 which is 1 whole and 1/3 so the answer is 6 + 1 1/3 = 7 1/3
2. 3 1/2 x 4 1/7 = 58
3. 1/6 x 4 you only times the first number so 4/6 which is simplified is 2/3
4.
5. 4 -:- 2 = 2 2/7 you only divide the first number (the 2 which makes it 1/7)
Hope this helps I will finish number four in a few minutes but this is it in the mean time
