hello!

=================================================

Here, we have to multiply fractions.

How to Multiply Fractions?

Here are the steps:-

  • Turn any whole numbers into fractions (example:- 3 = 3/1)
  • Multiply the numerator of the first fraction times the numerator of the 2nd fraction; same with the denominator.
  • Simplify if necessary.

So let's do it.

Step 1:-

[tex]\longmapsto\sf{3=\displaystyle\frac{3}{1}[/tex]

Step 2:-

[tex]\longmapsto\sf{\displaystyle\frac{3}{1} *\frac{7}{10}}[/tex]

[tex]\longmapsto\sf{\displaystyle\frac{21}{10} }[/tex]

We can't simplify this fraction, but there's something else we can do:-

  • Convert this improper fraction into a mixed number

Here's the answer:-

[tex]\boxed{\sf{2\displaystyle\frac{1}{10} }}[/tex]
