Hello!
The easiest way to solve this question would be to convert the fraction and mixed number to a decimal, and then multiply them together.
We know that to convert a fraction to a decimal, we must divide the numerator by the denominator.
1 ÷ 3 = 0.3... (It's a repeating decimal)
0.3... + 7 = 7.3... (Still repeating)
7 1/3 = 7.(3) as a decimal.
3 ÷ 4 = 0.75
3/4 = 0.75 as a decimal.
Multiply the two decimals together:
7. (3) × 0.75 = 5.5
