Multiply 3/7 by 9/10

To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators (top numbers) together and multiply the denominators (bottom numbers) together.

(3/7) * (9/10) = (3 * 9) / (7 * 10) = 27/70

Multiply 4/9 by −3. Write the answer as a mixed number in simplest form.

To multiply a fraction by a whole number or an integer, you multiply the numerator of the fraction by the whole number and keep the denominator the same.

(4/9) * (-3) = -12/9.

To simplify the fraction to its simplest form, we can divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which in this case is 3.

-12/9 = (-12 ÷ 3) / (9 ÷ 3) = -4/3.

Therefore, the answer as a mixed number in simplest form is -1 1/3.

Multiply 2/3 by 1 1/4. Write the answer in simplest form.

To multiply a mixed number by a fraction, it's best to convert the mixed number into an improper fraction.

First, convert the mixed number 1 1/4 into an improper fraction:
1 1/4 = (1 * 4 + 1) / 4 = 5/4.

Now, we can multiply the fractions:
(2/3) * (5/4) = (2 * 5) / (3 * 4) = 10/12.

To simplify the fraction to its simplest form, we can divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which in this case is 2.
10/12 = (10 ÷ 2) / (12 ÷ 2) = 5/6.

Therefore, the answer in simplest form is 5/6.

Multiply 9.6 by 0.2. Write the answer as a decimal.

To multiply decimals, multiply them as if they were whole numbers, and then adjust the decimal point to the left by the total number of decimal places in the factors.

9.6 multiplied by 0.2 gives:

96 * 2 = 192.

Since both numbers have one decimal place, the product will have a total of two decimal places.

Hence, the answer is 19.2.

Multiply 9.6 by 0.2. answer has to be in decimal form

The product of 9.6 and 0.2 is 1.92.

Multiply 2.6 by −1.3.

The product of 2.6 and -1.3 is -3.38.

−3/25

To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators and denominators together. Then, simplify the resulting fraction if possible.

(-2/5) * (3/10) = (-2 * 3) / (5 * 10) = -6/50.

To simplify the fraction, we can divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which in this case is 2.

-6/50 = (-6 ÷ 2) / (50 ÷ 2) = -3/25.

Therefore, the answer in simplest form is -3/25.

−2 1/2

To multiply a whole number by a fraction, you multiply the whole number by the numerator and keep the denominator the same.

4 * (-5/8) = (-20/8) = -2 4/8.

To simplify the mixed number to its simplest form, we can reduce the fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which in this case is 4.

-2 4/8 = -2 (4 ÷ 4) / (8 ÷ 4) = -2 1/2.

Therefore, the answer as a mixed number in simplest form is -2 1/2.

To multiply mixed numbers, it is helpful to convert them to improper fractions. Then, multiply the fractions as usual.

-2 1/2 can be written as -5/2.
-1 3/5 can be written as -8/5.

(-5/2) * (-8/5) = 40/10 = 4.

Therefore, the answer as a decimal is 4.
