You can turn these into improper fractions to help you. 5/3 x 5/2 = 10/6
As a mixed number your answer is 1 4/6

Answer:

4 1/6

Explanation:

One of the faster ways in which we can do this problem is to change the mixed numbers 1 2/3 and 2 1/2 to improper fractions.

Then the product of 1 2/3 and 2 1/2 is 5/3·5/2, which comes out to 25/6.

25/6 in turn comes out as 4 1/6 (answer)
