Answer:

5.25 inches or
5 (1)/(4) inches

Explanation:

I believe that the question is what do they multiply to..? If so, we start by making them both in decimal form:

7 / 2 = 3.5

3 / 2 = 1.5

Now, we multiply:

3.5 * 1.5 = 5.25

If you want fraction form, we can turn .25 to 1/4.

Fraction form:
5 (1)/(4)
