Solution, 1\frac{7}{8}\cdot \frac{5}{6}=1\frac{9}{16}\quad \left(\mathrm{Decimal:\quad }\:1.5625\right)

Steps:

\mathrm{Convert\:mixed\:numbers\:to\:improper\:fractions}:\quad 1\frac{7}{8}=\frac{15}{8}, =\frac{15}{8}\cdot \frac{5}{6}

\mathrm{Cross-cancel\:common\:factor:}\:3, =\frac{5}{8}\cdot \frac{5}{2}

\mathrm{Multiply\:fractions}:\quad \frac{a}{b}\cdot \frac{c}{d}=\frac{a\:\cdot \:c}{b\:\cdot \:d}, =\frac{5\cdot \:5}{8\cdot \:2}

\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:5\cdot \:5=25, =\frac{25}{8\cdot \:2}

\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:8\cdot \:2=16, =\frac{25}{16}

\mathrm{Convert\:improper\:fractions\:to\:mixed\:numbers}:\quad \frac{25}{16}=1\frac{9}{16}, =1\frac{9}{16}

Hope this helps!!!
