Question

Multiply and simplify. 2/3 x 1/3 x3 1/4

Answer 1

The answer is 13/18 is because you have to put 3 1/4 as an improper fraction and it equals to 13/4 and muiltply all of them so equals to 13/18

Answer 2

Simple....you can either multiply by changing these fractions into decimals...or multiply them as fractions...

In this case..we will do both methods.

You have...


`(2)/(3) * (1)/(3) *3 (1)/(4)`

change
`3 (1)/(4)`--->>>
`(13)/(4)` (Multiply whole number by denominator..add the numerator..and then use the original denominator)

So..now..


`(2)/(3) * (1)/(3) * (13)/(4) =`

=
`(2)/(9)`

=
`(2)/(9) * (13)/(4) = (26)/(36)`

Simplifying it....
`(13)/(18)`

Thus, your answer.

Now..convert into decimals...

you have...
`(2)/(3) , (1)/(3) , (13)/(4)`


`(2)/(3) =0.67 (rounded)`


`(1)/(3) =0.33 (rounded)`


`(13)/(4) =3.25`

0.67*0.33*3.25=0.72 (rounded)

And, if you divide
`(13)/(18)`....

=0.72

Thus, you know both your answers are...correct!!

Have a great day! :D
