Question

Perform the indicated operation. 4/11 x 10/8

Answer 1

 5/11 because if you simplify starting at 40/88 you get 5/11

Answer 2

Answer: The required answer is
`(5)/(11).`

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to perform he following indicated operation :

`E=(4)/(11)*(10)/(8)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)`

In the given expression, since the two fractions are combined by the product sign, so 4 will be canceled by 8.

From expression (i), we get

`E\\\\=(4)/(11)*(10)/(8)\\\\\\=(1)/(11)*(10)/(2)\\\\\\=(5)/(11).`

Thus, the required answer is
`(5)/(11).`
