1. The problem involves multiplying the fractions $\frac{19}{6}$ and $\frac{2}{15}$, finding the GCF, and converting $\frac{5}{2}$ to a mixed number.
2. To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators and denominators:
$$\frac{19}{6} \times \frac{2}{15} = \frac{19 \times 2}{6 \times 15} = \frac{38}{90}$$
3. Simplify $\frac{38}{90}$ by dividing numerator and denominator by their GCF. The GCF of 38 and 90 is 2:
$$\frac{\cancel{38}^{19}}{\cancel{90}^{45}} = \frac{19}{45}$$
4. So, $\frac{19}{6} \times \frac{2}{15} = \frac{19}{45}$.
5. The GCF given is 2, which we used to simplify the fraction.
6. To write $\frac{5}{2}$ as a mixed number, divide 5 by 2:
$$5 \div 2 = 2 \text{ remainder } 1$$
7. So, $\frac{5}{2} = 2 \frac{1}{2}$.
Final answers:
- $\frac{19}{6} \times \frac{2}{15} = \frac{19}{45}$
- GCF = 2
- $\frac{5}{2}$ as a mixed number is $2 \frac{1}{2}$
