Multiply 2/3 by 1 1/4 write the answer in the simplest form

Answer 1

To multiply 2/3 by 1 1/4, we first need to convert the mixed number, 1 1/4, into an improper fraction.

To do this, we multiply the whole number (1) by the denominator (4) and add the numerator (1). This gives us 5.
The denominator remains the same (4). So, 1 1/4 as an improper fraction is 5/4.

Now, we can multiply 2/3 by 5/4:

(2/3) * (5/4) = (2 * 5) / (3 * 4) = 10/12.

To simplify this fraction, we find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the numerator (10) and the denominator (12), which is 2.

Dividing both by the GCD, the simplified fraction is:

10/12 = 5/6.

So, 2/3 multiplied by 1 1/4 is equal to 5/6 in the simplest form.
