To find between which two whole numbers the product of $$ 3 	imes 3 \frac{1}{7} $$ lies, let's perform the calculation step by step.

1. **Convert the Mixed Number to an Improper Fraction:**

$$ 3 \frac{1}{7} = \frac{3 	imes 7 + 1}{7} = \frac{21 + 1}{7} = \frac{22}{7} $$

2. **Multiply by 3:**

$$ 3 	imes \frac{22}{7} = \frac{66}{7} $$

3. **Convert the Improper Fraction to a Mixed Number:**

$$ \frac{66}{7} = 9 \frac{3}{7} $$

4. **Determine the Whole Numbers Between Which the Product Lies:**

$$ 9 \frac{3}{7} $$ is greater than 9 but less than 10.

**Answer:**  
The product is between 9 and 10.
The product is between 9 and 10.
