Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To multiply 4×5⅜, the mixed number can be broken down into a whole number and a fraction. In this case, that whole number would be 5 and the fraction would be three-eighths. Each of these parts are then multiplied by 4 and the products are added together.

4×5⅜ = 4×(5+⅜)

= 4×5 + 4×⅜

= 20 + 3/2

= 20 + 1½

= 21½
