5/6 x 2 1/3 is 10/3 how can you tell that his answer is wrong need plz.

Step-by-step explanation:

first it would be easier to change2 1/3 into an improper fraction.

so 2 x 3 + 1 = 7    so it would be 7/3

5/6 x 7/3 = 35/18

and 35/18 is definitely not 10/3

when you multiply fractions, times the numerator together, and the denominator together

5x2=10

6x2=12

1x4=4

3x4=12

4x10=40     40/12=4/12

3+2=5

=5 4/12
