Answer 1

What is 3/2 times 7/8?

Answer:

1 5/16

For fraction multiplication, multiply the numerators and then multiply the denominators to get

`(3x7)/(2x8) = (21)/(16)`

This fraction cannot be further reduced.

Converting improper fraction to mixed fraction:

21 ÷ 16

`1 (5)/(16)`

Therefore,

3/2 x 7/8 = 1 5/16
