To simplify the expression \(4 \times \frac{5}{14}\), follow these steps:
1. Multiply the whole number by the numerator of the fraction:
\[
4 \times 5 = 20
\]
2. Place this result over the denominator:
\[
\frac{20}{14}
\]
3. Now, simplify the fraction. Find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of 20 and 14, which is 2.
4. Divide both the numerator and the denominator by their GCD:
\[
\frac{20 \div 2}{14 \div 2} = \frac{10}{7}
\]
Thus, \(4 \times \frac{5}{14}\) in simplest form is \(\frac{10}{7}\).
