Question

Please help?


3 1/6 * 2 1/4

Multiply and put answer in simplest form.

Answer 1

\[3\frac{ 1 }{ 6 } \times 2\frac{ 1 }{ 4 }\]

Answer 2

5 5/12 im pretty sure

Answer 3

Convert mixed numbers to improper fractions, multiply, then divide. Correct?

Answer 4

i just made them have the same denominators ( 2/12 , 3/12 ) and multiplied them (3+2=5) and you would multiply the 3 and 2 which would be 10 not 5

Answer 5

so 10 5/12

Answer 6

See I got \[7 \frac{ 3 }{ 24 }\] .

Change the mixed numbers to improper fractions, so 3 1/6 to 19/6, and 2 1/4 to 9/4. Multiply the two, and you have 171/24. Divide. 24 goes into 171 seven times with three left over, therefore you are left with the mixed number 7 3/24.

My question is multiple choice, and neither of our answers are one of the choices.

A) \[7 \frac{ 1 }{ 8}\]

B) \[7\frac{ 1 }{ 4 }\]

C) \[7\frac{ 1 }{ 3 }\]

D) \[7\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }\]

Answer 7
