Question

Help it is multiply fraction

Answer 1

Answer:
`2(5)/(8)`

First, multiply the numerators together and the denominators together.

3 · 7 = 21 and 2 · 4 = 8. So, (3/2) · (7/4) = 21/8

Now, you have an improper fraction which you need to change into a proper fraction. To do that, see how many times exactly the number from the denominator (in this case, 8) goes into the numerator (in this case, 21).

8 goes into 21 two times exactly. So, that's 8 · 2 = 16. Now you need to subtract the 16 from the original numerator (21) to get the remainder. 21 - 16 = 5. So, 5 is the remainder, and this your new numerator.

∴
`2(5)/(8)` is your final answer.

Answer 2

Answer:2 5/8

Explanation:

3/2 * 7/4

Multiply the numerators and the denominators

3 * 7 = 21

2 * 4 = 8

Outcome: 21/8

21 goes into 2 two times with 5 left over.

Final Answer: 2 5/8
