Step-by-step solution for: Multiply Fractions with Mixed Numbers-2 Worksheets | Multiplying ...
Let’s solve each problem step by step. We’re multiplying mixed numbers, so first we’ll turn them into improper fractions, multiply, then simplify and convert back to a mixed number if needed.

Problem 1: 2⁵₆ × 6²⁄₅
Step 1: Convert to improper fractions
2⁵⁄₆ = (2×6 + 5)/6 = 17/6
6²⁄₅ = (6×5 + 2)/5 = 32/5
Step 2: Multiply numerators and denominators
(17 × 32) / (6 × 5) = 544 / 30
Step 3: Simplify
Divide numerator and denominator by 2 → 272 / 15
Step 4: Convert to mixed number
15 goes into 272 eighteen times (15×18=270), remainder 2 → 18²⁄₁₅
✔ Final Answer for #1: 18²⁄₁₅
