Question

5 wholes times 7/9 as an fraction

Answer 1

Answer:

$\boxed{\frac{35}{9} \text{ or } 3\frac{8}{9}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We can rewrite 5 as a fraction and then multiply across.

======================================================

$5 * \frac{7}{9}\\\rule{150}{0.5}\\\text{5 can be rewritten as: } \frac{5}{1} \\\\\frac{5}{1} \times\frac{7}{9}\\\\\frac{5\times7}{1\times9}\\\\\boxed{\frac{35}{9}}$

======================================================

Since it is unclear weather to have a mixed fraction or improper fraction, I will list both.

======================================================

9 can fit into 35 three times with 8 left over.

$\frac{35}{9}=\boxed{3\frac{8}{9}}$

======================================================

Hope this helps!
