Hi!

Your answer is B.

Given:

[tex]15*\dfrac{5}{12}[/tex]

Change [tex]15[/tex] into a fraction by putting it over [tex]1[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{15}{1} * \dfrac{5}{12}[/tex]

Multiply the numerators and the denominators by each other:

[tex]\dfrac{15*5}{12*1} =\dfrac{75}{12}[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]\dfrac{75/3}{12/3} = \dfrac{25}{4}[/tex]

Mixed number form = [tex]6\dfrac{1}{4}[/tex]
