Question

2 1/2 x 3 1/5 fast please

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's turn each mixed fraction into an improper fraction:

$2 \frac{1}{2} =\frac{2}{2} +\frac{2}{2} +\frac{1}{2} =\frac{5}{2}$

$3\frac{1}{5} =\frac{5}{5} +\frac{5}{5} +\frac{5}{5} +\frac{1}{5} =\frac{16}{5}$

Multiply:

$\frac{5}{2} \times \frac{16}{5} =\frac{80}{10}$

Simplify:

$\frac{80 \div 10}{10 \div 10} =\frac{8}{1} =8$

8 is your simplified product.
