Full solution

Q. Multiply. Write your answer as a fraction or as a whole or mixed number.\newline113×212=1\frac{1}{3} \times 2\frac{1}{2} = _____
  1. Convert to Improper Fractions: Convert mixed numbers to improper fractions.\newline113=(1×3+1)/3=431 \frac{1}{3} = (1\times3 + 1)/3 = \frac{4}{3}\newline212=(2×2+1)/2=522 \frac{1}{2} = (2\times2 + 1)/2 = \frac{5}{2}
  2. Multiply Improper Fractions: Multiply the improper fractions.\newline(43)×(52)=(4×53×2)=206(\frac{4}{3}) \times (\frac{5}{2}) = (\frac{4\times5}{3\times2}) = \frac{20}{6}
  3. Simplify Fraction: Simplify the fraction.\newline206\frac{20}{6} can be simplified by dividing both numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 22.\newline20÷2=1020 \div 2 = 10, 6÷2=36 \div 2 = 3\newlineSo, 206=103\frac{20}{6} = \frac{10}{3}
