There are two possible interpretations of your question:
1) It is two fractions: 5/12 × 1/512 = (5×1)/(12×512) = 5/6144
2) It is two mixed numbers with the solidus between the numerator denominator of the fractional parts being stripped: 5 1/2 × 1 5/12
When working with mixed numbers, it is usually easier to convert them to improper fractions, do the operations, and then to convert any resulting improper fraction back to a mixed number:
5 1/2 × 1 5/12 = (5×2+1)/2 × (1×12+5)/12
= 11/2 × 17/12
= (11×17)/(2×12)
= 187/24
= (7×24+19)/24
= 7 19/24
(In future it would be useful to use the word "over" instead of the solidus (/) as the solidus will be deleted without replacement.)
