2/3 * 2 7/8
Make the right side into an improper fraction
2/3 * 23/8
With mulitplying, we can just multiply the tops together and the bottoms together like this
(2 * 23) / (3 * 8)
Notice we can factor out a 2 like this
(1 * 23) / (3 * 4)
1 and 23 are prime, so we can't reduce anymore.
23 / 12
1 11/12
The answer is 1 11/12 miles.
