Answer:

10/3

Explanation:

That's 1 1/3 times 2 1/2.

Converting these into improper fractions, we get 4/3 times 5/2.

Multiplying (4/3) by (5/2), we get 20/6, or, after reduction, 10/3

Answer:

3 1/3

Step-by-Step

first step is too make a an improper fraction, 1 1/3 equals 4/3 and 2 2/4 equals 10/4. next your gonna multiply 4/3 and 10/4, 4x10=40,3x4 equals 12, so it would be 40/12. but its improper, we need to reduce it. the lowest number that can go in both numbers is 4. 40 divided by 4 =10. 12 divided by 4=3. 12/3= 3 1/3
