Answer:
a 4 1/5
b 7 7/24
Step-by-step explanation:
a 7/9 * 5 2/5
Change the mixed number to an improper fraction
7/9 * (5*5+2)/5
7/9 * 27/5
Rewrite
7/5 * 27/9
7/5 * 3
21/5
Change this back to a mixed number
5 goes into 21 4 times (4*5 = 20 ) with 1 left over
4 1/5
b 1 3/4 * 4 1/6
Change to improper fractions
(4*1+3)/4 * (6*4+1)/6
7/4 * 25/6
175/24
Change back to a mixed number
24 goes into 175 7 times (7*24 =168 ) with 7 left over
7 7/24
