Question

How do I get the answer to 2/5 times 3

Answer 1

6/5

Explanation:

2/5*3=2/5*3/1=6/5

Answer 2

`(6)/(5)` or
`1(1)/(5)`

Explanation:

`(2)/(5) *3`

3 can be rewritten as 3/1

`=(2)/(5)*(3)/(1)`

Multiply the numerators and denominators

`2*3=6\\5*1=5`

`= (6)/(5)`

You can also change this into a mixed number by dividing the numerator by the denominator and writing the remainder as the numerator:

`= 1(1)/(5)`

I hope this helps!
