Answer: 31/12, or 2 7/12

Step-by-step explanation: The answer is actually very simple. All you have to do is to simplify 10 1/3 into 31/3, as 10x3+1=31. Then, you have to multiply 31/3 with 1/4. Do a simple fraction multiplication, and you get 31/12, or 2 7/12 if your teacher is asking for a mixed number. Sometimes simplifying is better
