Answer:
40/7
Step-by-step explanation:
first, when multiplying any number with a fraction, convert the number into fraction form (this is optional, but it will help your understanding)
so,
5 x 8/7
5/1 x 8/7
(now multiply the numerators with each other and denominators with each other)
5 x 8 = 40
1 x 7 = 7
so, 5/1 x 8/7 = 40/7
(since we cannot simplify 40/7 any longer, its the answer)
