Answer:

Third option

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the answer to this question you must change the mixed number into a improper fraction and then multiply the numerators to the denominators.

[tex]7\times4\frac{5}{8}[/tex]

Remember that all numbers have a invisible one as the denominator:

[tex]7=\frac{7}{1}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{7}{1} \times4\frac{5}{8}[/tex]

Turn the mixed number into a improper fraction:

[tex]8\times4=32+5=37[/tex]

(Remember to keep the denominator the same)

[tex]=\frac{37}{8}[/tex]

Now multiply:

[tex]7\times37=259[/tex]

[tex]1\times8=8[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{259}{8}[/tex]

Turn the improper fraction into a mixed number:

[tex]\frac{259}{8} =32\frac{3}{8}[/tex]

[tex]=32\frac{3}{8}[/tex]

Hope this helps.
