Question

ExplainHow to find the product 3/8 x 7/9

Answer 1

`(7)/(24)`

Explanation:

To factor an integer, we need to repeatedly divide it by the ascending sequence of primes (2, 3, 5...).

The number of times that each prime divides the original integer becomes its exponent in the final result. In our example, Prime number
`2^3=8`

`(3*7)/(2^3*3^2)`

We need to perform a multiplication. The following rule is applied:

`(A)/(B)*(C)/(D)=(AC)/(BD)`

In our example, the factors in the new numerator are 3,7

The factors in the new denominator are
`2^3, 3^2`

Answer 2

7/8

Explanation:

well first when you put them together like 3/8 and 7/9 you have to simplfy first. You have to cross simplify 3 and 3. Since they are the saem both turn into one. Now you mulitpy. 7 times 1 is 7 and 8 times one is 8. 7/8
