(11/3) * (72/5) = 792/15 = ?
I am sooo confused.. can you explain it to me please
Simplify 792/15
Jocelynn, looking at your answer, I can see that you just multiplied the whole number parts and then the fraction parts of your mixed fractions which is not the way fractions are multiplied
Mixed fractions are sort of cute to look at but they serve no purpose, (sort of like the Kardashians), so they have to be changed to "improper" fractions
Ms Sue showed you the right way to multiply mixed fractions, first change them to improper fractions, multiply the numberators , then the denomnators
that is how she got 792/15
She assumed that you would break this down to
52 4/5
