Answer 1

To multiply 6 by 2 1/7, we can first convert the mixed number to an improper fraction.

2 1/7 can be written as (2 * 7 + 1)/7 = 15/7.

Now, we can multiply 6 by 15/7:

6 * 15/7 = 90/7.

To convert the product to a mixed number, we need to divide the numerator (90) by the denominator (7).

90 ÷ 7 = 12 remainder 6.

Therefore, the mixed number equivalent of the product is 12 6/7.
