To multiply the fractions, we can convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions.
7 2/3 = (7*3 + 2)/3 = 23/3
2 2/3 = (2*3 + 2)/3 = 8/3
Now we can multiply the fractions:
(23/3) * (8/3) = (23*8)/(3*3) = 184/9
To simplify the fraction 184/9, we can divide the numerator (184) by the denominator (9).
184 รท 9 = 20 remainder 4
