Step-by-step solution for: Multiplying Two Mixed Fractions with All Simplification (Fillable) (A)
Let’s solve each problem step by step. We’re multiplying mixed numbers, so we’ll follow these steps for each:
1. Convert each mixed number to an improper fraction.
2. Multiply the two improper fractions (numerator × numerator, denominator × denominator).
3. Simplify the result if possible.
4. Convert back to a mixed number if needed.
We’ll go one by one.

Problem 1: 5⁴⁄ × 2⁄₇
Step 1: Convert
5⁴⁄₉ = (5×9 + 4)/9 = 49/9
2⁵⁄₇ = (2×7 + 5)/7 = 19/7
Step 2: Multiply
(49/9) × (19/7) = (49×19)/(9×7) = 931 / 63
Step 3: Simplify
Check if 931 and 63 have common factors.
63 = 7×9
931 ÷ 7 = 133 → yes!
So divide numerator and denominator by 7:
931 ÷ 7 = 133
63 ÷ 7 = 9
→ 133/9
Step 4: Convert to mixed number
133 ÷ 9 = 14 remainder 7 → 14⁷⁄₉
✔ Final Answer for #1: 14⁷₉
