Question
Multiply and reduce to lowest form (if possible).
$\frac{2}{3} \times 2 \frac{2}{3}$

Answer

We have,
$\frac{2}{3} \times 2 \frac{2}{3}=\frac{2}{3} \times\left(\frac{2 \times 3+2}{3}\right)=\frac{2}{3} \times\left(\frac{6+2}{3}\right)$
$=\frac{2}{3} \times \frac{8}{3}=\frac{2 \times 8}{3 \times 3}=\frac{16}{9}=1 \frac{7}{9}$
