Question

What is 3 1/4 x 2/5 x1/2

Answer 1

`(13)/(20)`

Step-by-step explanation:

`3 (1)/(4)` ×
`(2)/(5)` ×
`(1)/(2)`

First, you want to remove any coefficient in front of the fraction.

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

To change
`3(1)/(4)`, first you multiply the coefficient 3 to 4, which equals 12. Then add 12 to 1, which equals 13.

Now multiply:

`(13)/(4)` ×
`(2)/(5)` ×
`(1)/(2)`

`13` ×
`2` ×
`1` =
`26`

`4` ×
`5` ×
`2` =
`40`

`(13)/(4)` ×
`(2)/(5)` ×
`(1)/(2)` =
`(26)/(40)`

Simplify:

`(26)/(40)` =
`(13)/(20)`
