474×221=
To solve this problem, we'll follow these steps:
- Convert each mixed number to an improper fraction.
- Multiply the two improper fractions.
- Convert the result back to a mixed number.
Now, let's work through each step:
Step 1: Convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions.
For 474:
Multiply the whole number by the denominator: 4×7=28.
Add the numerator to this product: 28+4=32.
Thus, 474=732.
For 221:
Multiply the whole number by the denominator: 2×2=4.
Add the numerator: 4+1=5.
Thus, 221=25.
Step 2: Multiply the two improper fractions:
732×25=7×232×5=14160.
Step 3: Simplify 14160 and convert to a mixed number:
First, simplify the fraction by finding the greatest common divisor of 160 and 14, which is 2.
14160=14÷2160÷2=780.
Convert 780 to a mixed number:
Divide 80 by 7, which gives a quotient of 11 and a remainder of 3.
Thus, 780=1173.
Therefore, the solution to the problem is 1173.
