The answer is b - 25/7

You could change the second fraction into an improper one making it 57/7. When you multiply fractions you multiply straight across so the product would be - 57/21. This can be simplified to - 19/7 or - 2 5/7 if you want to write it as a mixed number. That makes the answer B.
