Answer

We have:

=2125×517=5125×517[Converting mixed fraction to improper fraction]=515×117[Simplifying 5 and 25 ⇒ Divide by 5]=35×11[Simplifying 51 and 17 ⇒ Divide by 17]=3×15×1=35\begin{array}{ll} \phantom{=} 2\dfrac{1}{25} \times \dfrac{5}{17} \\ = \dfrac{51}{25} \times \dfrac{5}{17} & \text{[Converting mixed fraction to improper fraction]} \\ = \dfrac{51}{5} \times \dfrac{1}{17} & \text{[Simplifying 5 and 25 ⇒ Divide by 5]} \\ = \dfrac{3}{5} \times \dfrac{1}{1} & \text{[Simplifying 51 and 17 ⇒ Divide by 17]} \\ = \dfrac{3 \times 1}{5 \times 1} & \\ = \dfrac{3}{5} \end{array}

∴ The answer is 35\dfrac{3}{5}
