Hey there!
First, let's put these fractions in improper form.
6 1/2= 13/2
9 1/4= 37/4
Now, we can multiply them!
[tex]\frac{13}{2} *\frac{37}{4} =\frac{481}{8}[/tex]
This cannot be simplified anymore, so we will turn it back into a mixed number.
481/8= 60 1/8
Therefore, your answer is C) 60 1/8
I hope that this helps!
Answer: 60 1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let’s convert both fractions into improper fractions. 6 1/2 as an improper fraction is: 13/2. 9 1/4 as an improper fraction is: 37/4.
Next, let’s multiply the numerators. 13 x 37 = 481.
Then, let’s multiply the denominators. 2 x 4 = 8.
Finally, we need to divide 481 by 8. 481/8 = 60.125. 0.125 = 1/8.
Hope this helps!
