To multiply these fractions, we can first convert them to improper fractions.
The improper fraction for 4/5 is (5 * 1 + 4) / 5 = 9/5.
The improper fraction for 7 1/3 is (3 * 7) + 1 / 3 = 22/3.
Now, multiply the numerators and denominators of the two fractions together:
(9/5) * (22/3) = (9 * 22) / (5 * 3) = 198 / 15.
To convert this improper fraction to a mixed number, divide the numerator (198) by the denominator (15):
198 ÷ 15 = 13 remainder 3.
The mixed number is therefore 13 3/15, which can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 3:
13 3/15 = 13 1/5.
Multiply 4/5 by 7 1/3 . Convert the product to be a mixed number.
