Answer:
is the answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
![2 \frac{1}{4} \times 2 \frac{1}{4}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=2%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%20%5Ctimes%202%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D)
<u>Step 1: Converting the mixed fraction into fraction:</u>
Multiply 4 by 2 add 1 to the result.
<u></u>
= ![\frac{4 \times 2+1}{4}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B4%20%5Ctimes%202%2B1%7D%7B4%7D)
=![\frac{8+1}{4}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B8%2B1%7D%7B4%7D)
=![\frac{9}{4}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B9%7D%7B4%7D)
<u>Step 2: Performing the multiplication using the fraction</u>
= >![\frac{9}{4} \times \frac{9}{4}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B9%7D%7B4%7D%20%5Ctimes%20%5Cfrac%7B9%7D%7B4%7D)
=> ![\frac{81}{16}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B81%7D%7B16%7D)
<u>Step 3: Converting the product back to mixed fraction </u>
divide 81 by 16 and find the remainder
=>![quotient \frac{remainder}{divisor}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=quotient%20%5Cfrac%7Bremainder%7D%7Bdivisor%7D)
Dividing 81 by 16 we get 5 as quotient and 1 as remainder
Thus the result in mixed fraction will be
=> ![5 \frac{1}{16}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=5%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B16%7D)
