We have been given the expression


72 * (3)/(4)

We can rewrite the expression as
(72* 3)/(4)

In order to simplify the given expression, we can check if we have any common terms in the numerator and denominator.

We can write the term 72 which is in the numerator as
18* 4

Thus, the expression becomes


(18* 4* 3)/(4)

We can see that 4 is common in both numerator and denominator. Hence, we can cancel 4. Thus, we are left with


18 * 3\\ =54

Therefore, we can rewrite the given expression as 54.
