Answer:


243 (5)/(6)

Explanation:

Given multiplication:


12 (2)/(3) * 19 (1)/(4)

Convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions:


\implies (12 * 3+2)/(3) * (19 * 4+1)/(4)


\implies (36+2)/(3) * (76+1)/(4)


\implies (38)/(3) * (77)/(4)


\textsf{Apply the fraction rule} \quad (a)/(c)*(b)/(d)=(ab)/(cd):


\implies (38*77)/(3*4)


\implies (2926)/(12)

Divide the numerator and denominator by 2:


\implies (2926 / 2)/(12 / 2)


\implies (1463)/(6)

Convert to a mixed number:


\implies 243 (5)/(6)
