Answer 1

`\textsf{C)} \quad 4(2)/(3)`

Explanation:

To find the product of two numbers, multiply them.

`\implies (7)/(9) * 6`

To multiply a fraction by a whole number, first rewrite the whole number as a fraction by dividing it by 1:

`\implies (7)/(9) * (6)/(1)`

`\textsf{Apply the fraction rule} \quad (a)/(c)*(b)/(d)=(a * b)/(c * d)`

`\implies (7 * 6)/(9 * 1)`

Simplify:

`\implies (42)/(9)`

Reduce the fraction by dividing the numerator and denominator by the common factor of 3:

`\implies (42 / 3)/(9 / 3)`

`\implies (14)/(3)`

Divide the numerator by the denominator:

`\implies 14 / 3=4\;\rm remainder\;2`

The mixed number answer is the whole number and the remainder divided by the denominator:

`\implies 4(2)/(3)`

Answer 2

• C) 4 2/3

------------------------------

The product of 7/9 and 6 is:

• 7/9 × 6 = Simplify by cancelling 3
• 7/3 × 2 = Multiply
• 14/3 = Convert to mixed number
• 4 2/3 Answer
