Question

Nine fifths multiplied by twenty three over eighteen

Answer 1

Answer:

In fraction form, the result is: $\frac{23}{10}$

in decimal form: 2.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the multiplication of two fractions results in another fraction whose numerator is the product of the two initial numerators and whose denominator is the product of the two denominators:

$\frac{a}{b} \,*\,\frac{c}{d} = \frac{a\,*\,c}{b\,*\,d}$

Most likely you are asked to give the answer in fraction form, so it is essential that all numerators and all denominators are factored out to cancel common factors of denominator and denominator.

$\frac{9}{5} \,*\,\frac{23}{18} =\frac{9\,*\,23}{5\,*\,18} =\frac{(3*3)\,*\,23}{5\,*\,(2*3*3)}=\frac{23}{5\,*\,2}=\frac{23}{10} =2.3$

Answer 2

Take 9x23= 207
Then 5x18= 90

Now simplify
207divided by 3=69
90 divided by 3= 30

Now I’m gonna divide by 3 again
69/3=23
30/3=10

23/10 would be your answer
