Question

Whats one and half times 16

Answer 1

8 is the answer because:

(½)16=16/2 which = 8

Answer 2

Okay so
`1 (1)/(2)*16`.

First, we make 16 a fraction:
`16=\boxed{\boxed{ (16)/(1)}}`

Then, we make
`1 (1)/(2)` a improper fraction:
`1 (1)/(2)= (1*2+1)/(2)=\boxed{\boxed{ (3)/(2)}}`

Now, we multiply
`(3)/(2)` by
`(16)/(1)`:
`(3)/(2)* (16)/(1)= (48)/(2)`

Finally, we simplify
`(48)/(2)`:
`(48:2)/(2:2)= (24)/(1)=\boxed{\boxed{24}}}`.

Your answer is
`\boxed{\boxed{24}}}}`.

Hoped I helped. :)
