Answer:


21(1)/(3) /(64)/(3)

Explanation:

In order to find the answer to this question you need to remember that all numbers have a invisible denominator that comes into effect when you are doing anything with fractions that invisible denominator is 1, and of course remember KCF (Keep, Change, Flip) while solving this problem.


20/(15)/(16)


20=(20)/(1)


(20)/(1) /(15)/(16)

Use KCF:


(20)/(1) *(16)/(15)

Multiply:


20*16=320


1*15=15


=(320)/(15)

Simplify:


320/5=64


15/5=3


=(64)/(3)

Convert into mixed number:


64/3=21.33333=21


64-(3*21)=1


=21(1)/(3)/(64)/(3)

Hope this helps.
