Question

Kwan said that the product of 5/6 × 2 1/3 is 10/3. how can you tell that his answer is wrong?

Answer 1

5/6 of a number cannot be greater than the number

Answer 2

Answer:

He is wrong because the correct answer is $\frac{35}{18}$ which is not equal to $\frac{10}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression,

$\frac{5}{6}\times 2\frac{1}{3}$

$=\frac{5}{6}\times \frac{7}{3}$

$=\frac{35}{18}$

Since,

$\frac{35}{18}\neq \frac{10}{3}$

Thus, Kwan's answer is incorrect because he multiply incorrectly.
