Question

$3 \frac{1}{3} \times 8 \frac{7}{10}$what is the product

Answer 1

$3\frac{1}{3}\cdot8\frac{7}{10}$

To compute this product, first you have to convert the mixed numbers into fractions, as follows:

$3\frac{1}{3}\text{ = }\frac{3\cdot3+1}{3}=\frac{10}{3}$$8\frac{7}{10}=\frac{8\cdot10+7}{10}=\frac{87}{10}$

Replacing into the multiplication:

$\frac{10}{3}\cdot\frac{87}{10}=\frac{87}{3}=29$
