Answer 1

To multiply mixed numbers, convert them to improper fractions, multiply the fractions, and simplify the result, giving you a mixed number answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

To multiply the two mixed numbers 4-1 and 3⅓, you need to convert them both to improper fractions.

4-1 can be written as &frac{3}{1}. 3⅓ can be written as &frac{10}{3}.

Multiplying the two improper fractions, &frac{3}{1} × &frac{10}{3}, gives you &frac{30}{3}.

Simplifying this fraction, you get 10 as the numerator and 3 as the denominator. Therefore, the answer is 10&frac{1}{3}.
