Which is the answer to the following equation? 1 5/9 x 2 6/7 = ? a) 2 11/16 b) 2 10/21 c) 3 11/16 d) 4 4/9

1 5/9 × 2 6/7=??

To find this out, we have to make both fractions improper fractions, by multiplying the whole numbers with the bottom numbers(denominator) and then adding the numerator(top number).

1 5/9= (9×1) + 5 = 14/9

2 6/7= (7×2) + 6 = 20/7

Now, we multiply them together.

14/9 × 20/7

Cross multiply. 

Your answer is now 40/9

Make that into a mixed number.

D)  4 4/9
