Answer 1

The correct numerical expression for three fourths of the product of four fifths and fifteen is (3/4) * (4/5) * 15, represented by option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The numerical expression for three fourths of the product of four fifths and fifteen is represented by option A, which is (3/4) * (4/5) * 15. This is because you are first finding the product of four fifths and fifteen, and then taking three fourths of that product.

Let's break this down step by step:

1. Multiply four fifths (4/5) by fifteen to get the product.
2. After obtaining the product, multiply it by three fourths (3/4) to find three fourths of the product.

Both steps combined give us expression (3/4) * (4/5) * 15.
