The correct Answer is:
To find the other number when the product of two numbers is \(3 \frac{1}{3}\) and one of the numbers is \(3 \frac{3}{5}\), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Convert Mixed Numbers to Improper Fractions First, we need to convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions. 1. For \(3 \frac{1}{3}\): \[ 3 \frac{1}{3} = 3 + \frac{1}{3} = \frac{3 \times 3 + 1}{3} = \frac{9 + 1}{3} = \frac{10}{3} \] 2. For \(3 \frac{3}{5}\): \[ 3 \frac{3}{5} = 3 + \frac{3}{5} = \frac{3 \times 5 + 3}{5} = \frac{15 + 3}{5} = \frac{18}{5} \] ### Step 2: Set Up the Equation Let the other number be \(x\). According to the problem, the product of the two numbers is: \[ x \times \frac{18}{5} = \frac{10}{3} \] ### Step 3: Solve for \(x\) To find \(x\), we can rearrange the equation: \[ x = \frac{10}{3} \div \frac{18}{5} \] Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal: \[ x = \frac{10}{3} \times \frac{5}{18} \] ### Step 4: Multiply the Fractions Now, we multiply the fractions: \[ x = \frac{10 \times 5}{3 \times 18} = \frac{50}{54} \] ### Step 5: Simplify the Fraction Now, we simplify \(\frac{50}{54}\): \[ \frac{50}{54} = \frac{25}{27} \quad \text{(dividing both numerator and denominator by 2)} \] ### Final Answer Thus, the other number is: \[ \boxed{\frac{25}{27}} \]
