Let’s do this by examples.

Β 

2/3 Γ— 4

= (2 Γ— 4)/3

= 8/3

Β 

9 / 8 Γ— 2

= (9 Γ— 2)/8

= 9/4

Β 

2/3 Γ— 5/4

= (2 Γ— 5)/(3 Γ— 5)

= 10/12

Β 

4 Γ— 3 2 / 7

= 4 Γ— (3+2/7)

= 4 Γ— ((3 Γ— 7 + 2)/7)

= 4 Γ— ((21 + 2)/7)

= 4 Γ— 23/7

= (23 Γ— 4)/7

= 92/7

Β 

7/2 Γ— 4 3/5

= 7/2 Γ— (4+3/5)

= 7/2 Γ— ((4 Γ— 5 + 3)/5)

= 7/2 Γ— ((20 + 3)/5)

= 7/2 Γ— 23/5

= (7 Γ— 23)/(2 Γ— 5)

= 161/10
