Answer:

4 4/5.

Step by step explanation:

To multiply 4 by 1 1/5, we can first convert the mixed number 1 1/5 to an improper fraction:

1 1/5 = 6/5

Now we can multiply 4 by 6/5:

4 x 6/5 = 24/5

To write the product as a mixed number, we need to express 24/5 as a whole number plus a proper fraction. We can do this by dividing 24 by 5:

24 ÷ 5 = 4 with a remainder of 4

So, 24/5 can be written as 4 4/5. Therefore, the product of 4 and 1 1/5 is:

4 x 1 1/5 = 4 4/5.
