So you don't give the answer either way ;/
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I want to work through it together
OpenStudy (mathmale):
6 1/4 * 4/5 would be easier to read (and perhaps easier to understand) if expressed as follows:\[(6\frac{ 1 }{ 4 })(\frac{ 4 }{ 5 })\]
OpenStudy (mathmale):
Can you think of what to do next? Note that this is a MULTIPLICATION problem.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Oo I see it c;

ummm... you have to multiply 6 times 4 plus 1
OpenStudy (mathmale):
Exactly. In other words, you need to convert 6 1/4 into an improper fraction. Yes. Go for it.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
It would be 25/4
OpenStudy (mathmale):
Right! and what would be your next step towards solving the original problem?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
To multiply

Im getting him back for ya :)
OpenStudy (mathmale):
:) Sorry.
Think:\[\frac{ 25 }{ 4 }*\frac{ 4 }{ 5}\]
OpenStudy (mathmale):
... can easily be reduced. Reduce it, please. (You could multiply, but that would not help.)
