Explanation:


\tt{3 (1)/(2) * (1)/(8)}

Convert mixed number into improper fraction. For this : Multiply 3 and 2 and add 1. Also , remember that the denominator stays the same. ( i.e
\sf{ (3 * 2 + 1)/(2) = (7)/(2) } )


\tt{ (7)/(2) * (1)/(8)}

To multiply one fraction by another , multiply the numerators for the numerator and multiply the denominators for its denominator.


\tt{ (7)/(16)}


\pink{ \boxed{ \boxed{ \tt{Our \: final \: answer : \boxed{ \bold{ \tt{ (7)/(16)}}}}}}}

Hope I helped ! ♪

Have a wonderful day / night ! ツ
