First, we need to put 40 over 1 so that we can start multiplying.
Now we multiply straight across:

3 40 3*40 = 120
_ x _ = _ _ Now we have to simplify 120/5 by dividing.

5 1 5*1= 5
So, the answer is 120/5= 24. Hope this helped!

Hello!

Change 40 to a fraction so that it will be easier to multiply

Multiply the numerators and denominators


(3)/(5) * (40)/(1) = (120)/(5) = 24

Your answer is 24
