Express your answer as a mixed number in the simplest form.

Enter your answer in the box.

Answer 1

The answer would be 2.5

Answer 2

Turning them to improper fractions,
3 1/3 = 10/3
2 1/4 = 9/4
Times them together
10/3 x 9/4
10 x9 = 90
3x12 = 36

90/36

Back to a mixed fraction
2 18/36 or 2 1/2

So your answer is 2 1/2
