Question

Write your answer as a fraction or as a whole or mixed number 4 4/5 times 2 1/5​

Answer 1

Answer:

It would be 10 14/25

Step-by-step explanation:

You could use a calculator for this, but that’d be cheating so let me explain.

We make both of our fractions improper first

4 4/5 = 24/5

2 1/5 = 11/5

We won’t need to change the “bottom number“ since they’re already the same, so let’s multiply them now.

24 x 11 = 264

————

5 x 5 = 24

Ten 24s can fit into 264 so our final number is

10 14/25

Answer 2

Answer:

10 14/25

Step-by-step explanation:

first convert mixed numbers to improper fractions

4 4/5 =24/5  

2 1/5= 11/5

24/5 × 11/5

multiply  it and you will get 264/25

you can't change the improper fraction into a whole number because 25 can't go into 264 evenly. So change the improper fraction to a mixed number. To do that see how many times the denominator (25) can go into the numerator (264)

It 25 go in 264 10 times. 25*10= 250

so the whole number is 10 always keep the denominator (25) the same , then subtract 264 from 250

264-250=14

so you answer is 10 14/25
