Answer:

D 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Normally when I multiply mixed numbers, I change them to improper fractions first so that it is easier.

1\frac{2}{10} × 5 = \frac{12}{10} × 5

Multiply 5 by the numerator of the fraction and leave the denominator alone.

\frac{12}{10} × 5 = \frac{60}{10}

Change back to simplest form.

\frac{60}{10} = 6
