Answer:


1(1)/(9)

Explanation:

Given the following question:


1(2)/(3) *(2)/(3)

In order to multiply the two, we have to convert the mixed number into a improper fraction and then multiply the numerator by the numerator, the denominator by the denominator.


1(2)/(3) =3*1=3+2=(5)/(3)

(5)/(3) *(2)/(3)

5*2=10

3*3=9

=(10)/(9)

Convert the improper fraction into a mixed number:


(10)/(9)

(10)/(9) =10/9=1(1)/(9)

=1(1)/(9)

Your answer is "1 1/9."

Hope this helps.
