2 1/3 by 2/5
To multiply these fractions, you multiply the numerators together and multiply the denominators together:
(2 1/3)(2/5) = (7/3)(2/5)
Now, multiply the numerators: 7 * 2 = 14
Multiply the denominators: 3 * 5 = 15
Therefore, the answer is 14/15.
To multiply 2 1/3 by 2/5, first convert the mixed number to an improper fraction:
2 1/3 = (2 * 3 + 1) / 3 = 7/3
Now multiply the fractions:
(7/3) * (2/5) = (7 * 2) / (3 * 5) = 14/15
So, 2 1/3 multiplied by 2/5 equals 14/15.
To multiply 2 1/3 by 2/5, you can follow these steps:
Step 1: Convert the mixed number 2 1/3 to an improper fraction.
To do this, multiply the whole number (2) by the denominator of the fraction (3), and then add the numerator (1).
2 * 3 = 6
6 + 1 = 7
So, 2 1/3 is equivalent to the improper fraction 7/3.
Step 2: Multiply the two fractions.
Multiply the numerators (2 and 7) to get the new numerator, and multiply the denominators (5 and 3) to get the new denominator.
2 * 7 = 14
5 * 3 = 15
So, 2 1/3 multiplied by 2/5 is equal to (14/15).
The final answer is 14/15.
