Question

1/5x3/4x5/7 write your answer in simplest form

Answer 1

3/28

Explanation:

Set them up like this:

`(1)/(5)*(3)/(4)*(5)/(7)`

and the 5's cancel each other out, leaving you with

`(1)/(1)*(3)/(4)*(1)/(7)`

Multiply straight across the top and straight across the bottom to get

`(1)/(1) *(3)/(4) *(1)/(7) =(3)/(28)`

When you reduce as much as possible before multiplying, the answer will automatically be in its reduced form.
