Question

Multiply. Write your answer as a fraction in lowest terms.

Answer 1

Answer:

6 4/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert any whole numbers to mixed numbers

$\frac{12}{1} \times \frac{23}{42}$

Use fractions formula

$\frac{a \times b}{c \times d} = \frac{e}{f}$

$\frac{12 \times 23}{1 \times 42} = \frac{276}{42}$

Count how many times 276 goes into 42 evenly

$= 6\frac{4}{7}$
