Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To multiply fractions, we simply multiply the numerators and then multiply the denominators. So, 
$$\frac { 10 } { 3 } \cdot \frac { 9 } { 8 } = \frac{10\cdot 9}{3\cdot 8} = \frac{90}{24}$$ 
To get the answer in lowest terms, we need to simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor (GCF). The GCF of 90 and 24 is 6, so we have: 
$$\frac{90}{24} = \frac{15}{4}$$ 
Therefore, the answer is C, $\frac{15}{4}$.
