Question

I need help with my homework
What is 9x5/8?

Answer 1

5 5/8

Explanation:

How you get that is by writing the problem down and putting a 1 under the 9 and then multiply 5/8 which equals 45/8 and then that equals 5 5/8

Answer 2

5.625

Explanation:

First you should multiple the 9 and the 5. You should do this first because of the order of operations. Then once you get what 9×5 is, 45 then you will procide to divide your first answer 45 by 8. You may know that 8 can go into 45 evenly 5 times. However 5×8 is 40 so you will have to keep diving out until you no longer have any left over numbers. So eventually you will get 5.625 as your final answer.
