Answer: 25 1/4

Explanation:

1)convert your mixed numbers into improper fractions; To do this, multiply the denominator by the whole number and then add the numerator.

3 1/4 = 13/4 7 5/7 = 54/7

2)multiply across.

13x54= 702

4 x 7= 28

3)Divide 702 by 28.

702/28= 25 2/28, simplify 2/28 and you get 1/14

Therefore, the answer is 25 1/14
