Hiya @Popstar30977 ! \(\bbox[8pt,#f9bec7,border:5pt solid #33cccc]{\color{white}{\Large\cal~\bigstar\heartsuit\dagger Welcome~to~OpenStudy!!!\bigstar\heartsuit\dagger{{\cal\color{#33cccc}{\hspace-281pt{~~~~~~~~~~~~~\bigstar\heartsuit\dagger Welcome~to~OpenStudy!!!\bigstar\heartsuit\dagger}}}}~~}}\) \(\small{Made~by~SleepyJess}\) You can figure this out by using a concept called the "backwards C". The backwards C is basically where you multiply the denominator of the fraction by the whole number. Which in your case would be 8. Then adding the numerator to the product that you get. It would look like this. |dw:1424888455549:dw| So what is \[8\times9\]
