To multiply 2 1/3 by 2 1/5, we first convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions.
2 1/3 = (3 * 2 + 1)/3 = 7/3
2 1/5 = (5 * 2 + 1)/5 = 11/5
Now, we multiply the two fractions:
(7/3) * (11/5) = (7 * 11)/(3 * 5) = 77/15
To convert this fraction to a mixed number, we divide the numerator by the denominator:
77 รท 15 = 5 remainder 2
So, the mixed number is 5 2/15.
