Answer:
[tex]\boxed{\frac{35}{9} \text{ or } 3\frac{8}{9}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We can rewrite 5 as a fraction and then multiply across.
======================================================
[tex]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}}[/tex]
======================================================
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.
[tex]\frac{35}{9}=\boxed{3\frac{8}{9}}[/tex]
======================================================
Hope this helps!
