Question

What is 3 3/8 x 2 1/3

Answer 1

= 7 7/8

Explanation:

3 3/8 = 3 + 3/8 = 24/8 + 3/8 = (24+3)/8 = 27/8

2 1/3 = 2 + 1/3 = 6/3 + 1/3 = (6+1) / 3 = 7/3

Then:

3 3/8 x 2 1/3 = 27/8 x 7/3 = (27x7) / (8x3)

= 189 / 24 = 168/24 + 21/24 = 7 + 21/24

= 7 + 7/8

= 7 7/8

Answer 2

9/4 as a improper fraction or 2 1/4 as a mixed number! Hope this helps!
