Answer to Problem 53SR

Product is $\frac{6}{7}$

Explanation of Solution

Given information: Expression is $\frac{8}{9}·\frac{27}{28}$

Calculation:

Expression is given as follows:

  $\frac{8}{9}·\frac{27}{28}$

On solving the above expression

  $\begin{array}{l}\frac{8}{9}·\frac{27}{28}=\frac{8}{9}\times \frac{27}{28}\\ \frac{8}{9}·\frac{27}{28}=\frac{8}{1}\times \frac{3}{28}\\ \frac{8}{9}·\frac{27}{28}=\frac{2}{1}\times \frac{3}{7}\\ \frac{8}{9}·\frac{27}{28}=\frac{6}{7}\end{array}$

Hence, product is $\frac{6}{7}$
