Step 1: Convert 3 ¹⁄₄ and 1 ²⁄₃ to improper fractions to make multiplication easier. Use the rule a ^b/_c = ^{(ac + b)}/_c to convert a mixed number to an improper fraction. In words, you multiply the denominator (bottom number) by the whole number and then add the numerator. Put that number over the denominator to create the improper fraction. 11ec0fda_98d1_1919_a67f_81174a96a082_NR0004_00 Step 2: Simplify: 11ec0fda_98d1_191a_a67f_efd161b3ba0a_NR0004_00 Step 3: Use this rule: ^a/_b × ^c/_d = ^ac/_bd to multiply fractions. 11ec0fda_98d1_191b_a67f_b5e962aedf65_NR0004_00 Step 4: Simplify. 13 × 5 = 65 and 4 × 3 = 12. 11ec0fda_98d1_191c_a67f_25de45171fbf_NR0004_00 Step 5: Convert to a mixed fraction. To convert to a mixed fraction, we divide the numerator by the denominator. The quotient is the whole number. Any remainder stays in the numerator. 11ec0fda_98d1_191d_a67f_13174d344edb_NR0004_00
