6 97/100 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

4 1/10 ⋅ 1 7/10 = ?

41/10 ⋅ 17/10 = 697/100

697/100 = 6 97/100

6 97/100 bags

697/100 bags

or

6 97/100 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

it is fractions. just plain and simple.

when you eat a pizza slice, it is usually one of 8 slices that make the whole pizza. 1/8 or one 8th. meaning that the whole thing is 8/8 or eight 8ths.

the same for 10ths or any other fractions.

4 1/10 bags = 41/10 bags

1 7/10 times = 17/10 times

and now we multiply fractions, as 17/10 times is similar to 2 times or 3 times something - we multiply by this factor.

41/10 × 17/10

as we learned in early elementary school : numerators (top part of the fraction) are multiplied with each other, and denominators (bottom part) are multiplied with each other. and then we simplify the result as much as possible.

41/10 × 17/10 = (41×17) / (10×10) = 697/100

no simplification is possible, sadly.

but that means he used almost 7 bags of hot dog buns.

exactly 6 full bags and 97/100 of the 7th bag.

so, either

697/100 bags

or

6 97/100 bags

or as alternative (not wanted here in this example but just FYI)

6.97 bags
