It is! When you're doing a fraction specifically like that, the denominators cancel out. Therefore you can get rid of the 12. It just becomes 21/7, which as you know is 3.

Hope that helps :)

What is 1 2/3 multiple 2/3

Flauer [41]

Answer:

$1\frac{1}{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following question:

$1\frac{2}{3} \times\frac{2}{3}$

In order to multiply the two, we have to convert the mixed number into a improper fraction and then multiply the numerator by the numerator, the denominator by the denominator.

$1\frac{2}{3} =3\times1=3+2=\frac{5}{3}$
$\frac{5}{3} \times\frac{2}{3}$
$5\times2=10$
$3\times3=9$
$=\frac{10}{9}$

Convert the improper fraction into a mixed number:

$\frac{10}{9}$
$\frac{10}{9} =10\div9=1\frac{1}{9}$
$=1\frac{1}{9}$

Your answer is "1 1/9."

Hope this helps.
