Answer:
(19.5\pi )/(3)\approx20.42

Explanation:

I assume that you need to find the product.

It is known that a fraction has the following form:


(a)/(b)

Where "a" is the numerator and "b" is the denominator.

For this exercise it is important to remember that:


(a)((b)/(c))=(ab)/(c)

In this case you have the following expression given in the exercise:


3.9((5\pi )/(3))

You can observe in the expression that the numeartor of the fraction is
5\pi, and the denominator is
3

So, in order to find the product, you need to multiply the numerator (which is
5\pi) by the decimal number located outside of the parentheses (which is
3.9), and then you must divide that result by the denominator.

Through this procedure, you get the following result:


3.9((5\pi )/(3))=((5\pi)(3.9))/(3)=(19.5\pi )/(3)\approx20.42
