Question

Simplify: 3/8 x 8/9
A. 1/3
B. 2/6
C. 24/72
D. 27/64​

Answer 1

A) 1/3 is the correct answer

Answer 2

1/3 (A)

Explanation:

We take
`(3)/(8) *(8)/(9)` and we combine them together. It leaves us with:

`((3)(8))/((8)(9))` Now, we must solve for what we have by multiplying both the top and bottom of our fraction and that leaves us with:

`(24)/(72)`

And now, we simplify that into our answer:
`(1)/(3)`
