Answer

(17/12) × (253/5) = (4301/60) = 71 (41/60) = 71.6833

Step-by-step explanation

We are asked to work on the given multiplication


(17)/(12)*(253)/(5)

The way to go about this is to multiply the numerators together and the denominators together.


\begin{gathered} (17)/(12)*(253)/(5) \\ =(17*253)/(12*5) \\ =(4301)/(60) \end{gathered}

(17/12) × (253/5) = (4301/60) = 71 (41/60) = 71.6833

Hope this Helps!!!
