1 answer

To multiply fractions, you need to multiply the numerators (the top numbers) and the denominators (the bottom numbers).

In this case, Hiroshi multiplied (2/7) * 3.

The numerator of (2/7) is 2, and when multiplied by 3, it becomes 6.

The denominator of (2/7) is 7, and it remains the same when multiplied by 3.

Therefore, the correct result Hiroshi should have obtained is 6/7.
