Answer:

2 and 4/5

Explanation:

If you ate 2/5 of a pizza in 1/7 of an hour then you need to multiply 2/5 by 7

Start by converting 7 into a fraction

7 = 7/1

then multiply the top and bottom of the fractions

2 * 7 = 14

5 * 1 = 5

2/5 * 7/1 = 14/5

Convert 14/5 into a mixed number

14/5 = 2 and 4/5
