If I were you I would turn 28 into a fraction

You know any whole number is really what? Like for instance 7 as a fraction is really 7/1

OpenStudy (mathlegend):

So set up your multiplication of two fractions

OpenStudy (mathlegend):

7/8 * 28/1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ 7 }{ 8 } \times 28\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ 196 }{ 8 }\]

OpenStudy (mathlegend):

\[\frac{ 7 }{ 8}*\frac{ 28 }{ 1}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

196

OpenStudy (anonymous):

8

OpenStudy (mathlegend):

7*28 = 196 196 / 8= ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[24.5 / 24\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }\]
