Multiply the two mixed numbers 4 1/2 x 3 2/3 simplify your answer and write it as a mixed number
konstantin123 [22]

Answer: 16 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

It's easiest to multiply improper fractions and then to convert them back into mixed numbers, so 4 1/2 would become 9/2 and 3 2/3 would become 11/3. \frac{9}{2} *\frac{11}{3}= 99/6. Now just simplify to 33/2 and then convert back into a mixed number.  16 1/2

How do i find the area for number 4?
ankoles [38]
<h3>Answer:  41 cm^2</h3>

Explanation:

Form a horizontal line as shown below (see attached image). This forms 2 separate smaller rectangles

  • The bottom rectangle has area of 4*8 = 32 cm^2
  • The top rectangle has area of 3*3 = 9 cm^2

The total area is therefore 32+9 = 41 cm^2

You can say "square cm" or "sq cm" in place of the "cm^2".
