UpStudy AI · Accepted Answer

To multiply the mixed numbers $$1 \frac{1}{2}$$ and $$4 \frac{2}{3}$$, follow these steps:

1. **Convert Mixed Numbers to Improper Fractions:**

- $$1 \frac{1}{2}$$:
     $$
     1 \frac{1}{2} = \frac{(1 \times 2) + 1}{2} = \frac{3}{2}
     $$
   
   - $$4 \frac{2}{3}$$:
     $$
     4 \frac{2}{3} = \frac{(4 \times 3) + 2}{3} = \frac{14}{3}
     $$

2. **Multiply the Improper Fractions:**
   
   $$
   \frac{3}{2} \times \frac{14}{3} = \frac{3 \times 14}{2 \times 3} = \frac{42}{6}
   $$

3. **Simplify the Result:**
   
   $$
   \frac{42}{6} = 7
   $$

**Final Answer:** $$7$$
$$7$$

\( 1 \frac{1}{2} \times 4 \frac{2}{3} \) Make sure you simplify if possible!
