Step-by-step solution

To solve this problem, we'll follow these steps:

  • Convert each mixed number into an improper fraction.
  • Multiply the two improper fractions.
  • Simplify the resulting fraction if necessary.
  • Convert the final product back to a mixed number if desired.

Now, let's work through each step:

Step 1: Convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions.
For 227 2\frac{2}{7} : 227=2×7+27=14+27=167 2\frac{2}{7} = \frac{2 \times 7 + 2}{7} = \frac{14 + 2}{7} = \frac{16}{7} For 134 1\frac{3}{4} : 134=1×4+34=4+34=74 1\frac{3}{4} = \frac{1 \times 4 + 3}{4} = \frac{4 + 3}{4} = \frac{7}{4}

Step 2: Multiply the improper fractions.
167×74=16×77×4=11228 \frac{16}{7} \times \frac{7}{4} = \frac{16 \times 7}{7 \times 4} = \frac{112}{28}

Step 3: Simplify the resulting fraction.
Since 112÷28=4 112 \div 28 = 4 , 11228=4 \frac{112}{28} = 4

The final result is a whole number, so there is no need for conversion back to a mixed number.

Therefore, the solution to the problem is 4 4 .
