Question

What is the product of7/16,4/3,1/2

Answer 1

`\sf (7)/(24).`

Explanation:

1. Write the initial expression.

`\sf (7)/(16) *(4)/(3)*(1)/(2)`

2. Rewrite the expression.

When multiplying fractions, we can always just multiply all the numerators together and the denominators aswell, like this:

`\sf (7*4*1)/(16*3*2)=(28)/(96)`

3. Simplify.

We could divide both the numerator and denominator by 4 to fully simplify this answer:

`\sf (28/4)/(96/4)=(7)/(24)`

Since the numerator (7) is a prime number, this fraction cannot be further simplified.

4. Final answer.

`\sf (7)/(24).`
