Q 1 - Multiply. Write your answer as a mixed number in simplest form.

$\mathbf {4\frac{3}{8} \times 5}$

### Explanation

Step 1:

First, we write the mixed number $4\frac{3}{8}$ as an improper fraction

$4\frac{3}{8} = \frac{\left ( 4 \times 8 + 3 \right )}{8} = \frac{35}{8}$; $5 = \frac{5}{1}$

Step 2:

$4\frac{3}{8} \times 5 = \frac{35}{8} \times \frac{5}{1}$

Multiplying numerators and denominators

$\frac{35}{8} \times \frac{5}{1} = \frac{(35 \times 5)}{(8 \times 1)} = 1\frac{75}{8}$
