You have a mixed fraction that needs to be converted into an improper fraction first before the multiplication.
In other words, 3 7/16 = (3 x 16 +7)/16 = (48 + 7)/16 = 55/16.
So you only need to multiply 55/16 x 68/1 = (55X68)/16X1 = 3740/16 That's your answer!
You can actually simplify this fraction dividing numerator and denominator by 4. So, your final result would be 935/4.
Finally, if you need to convert that back to a mixed fraction as I suspect, you'll need to divide the numerator by the denominator and put the remainder in the fraction, which will give you: 233 3/4.

Turn the 3 7/16 fraction into an improper fraction:
55/16*68
Cancel out the 16 and 68:
55/4*17
935/4=233 3/4

3 7/16 X 68 = 233.75
first divide 7 by 16 = .4375
then 3.4375 X 68 = 233.75

Convert this mixed number into a improper fraction.
3 7/16
= 55/16
Now multiply the numerator of this fraction with 68.
55*68/16
=3740/16
Simplify this fraction back into mixed number.
3740/16
=935/4
=233 3/4
Convert it into decimal if desired.
233 3/4
=233.75

16 divided by 7 = 2.286
2.286 + 3 = 5.286
5.286 x 68 = 359.448

(3 7/16)(68)=x
[{(3)(16)+7}/16][68]=x
[{48+7}/16][68]=x
(55/16)(68)=x
3740/16=x
233.75=x
