Answer: 8 2/7

Explanation:

Turn 2 1/10 into an improper fraction:

21/10 + 1 2/7 + 4 9/10

Turn 1 2/7 into an improper fraction:

21/10 + 9/7 + 4 9/10

Multiply 21/10 and 9/7 and combine the fractions into an improper fraction:

21/10 * 9/7 = 237/70

Turn 4 9/10 into an improper fraction then add:

237/70 + 49/10 = 58/7

Turn 58/7 into a mixed number (final step):

58/7 = 8 2/7

Hope this Helps!
