Question

write in simplest form 3 1/5 × 3 1/6 is what

Answer 1

Answer:

$10\frac{2}{15}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to write $3\frac{1}{5}*3\frac{1}{6}$ in simplest form

We convert the mixed numbers to improper fraction.

$\frac{16}{5}*\frac{19}{6}$

We look for common factors to cancel out

$\frac{8*2}{5}*\frac{19}{2*3}$

$\frac{8}{5}*\frac{19}{3}$

We multiple the numerators and the denominators to get:

$\frac{8*19}{5*3}$

This simplifies to:

$\frac{152}{15}=10\frac{2}{15}$
