Kknow how to solve Fractions?
I do but not this one. This is something I never learned yet and my teacher's gonna throw it in there. -sigh
Let's do first one first. 12 x 2 2/3
First we need 12 to be a fraction, know how to?
12/1?
Correct, and it's easier for us to do 2 2/3 in improper fraction than mixed when solving. What is 2 2/3 improper?
8/3
Ok so now \[\frac{ 12 }{ 1} \times \frac{ 8 }{ 3}\]
12 * 8 is? 1 * 3 is?
96/3? o.o
Now we can simplify, 96 divided by 3 is?
That'll be 32.
So now, does 32 match with A, B, or C?
It goes with B right?
I believe so, let's go over 3
12 x 5/5
12 because 5/5 is a whole and 12 x 1 is 12.
The answer will be C.
Yup, or if you wanted to do the long way, 12 * 5 = 60 1 * 5 = 5, 60/5 = 12.
So, are you capable of doing the rest? :'D
I don't think so.
So we did 1 and 3, let's do 2 and 4. I promise the others aren't even hard either! 3/5 * 7/7
Ok.
That would equal??
Wait, 7/7=1 whole and 3/5 x 1= 3/5 again right?
Yup, or if you did long way then it would be 21/35 divided by 7/7 because that's a common factor which would equal 3/5. :P
Oh ok. So I got C.
Not sure how to do the other one, sorry.
That one is the easiest in my opinion lol.. 2/3 x 3/4 Thank God it isn't addition and subtraction or that would be a pain..
2*3? 3*4?
You just multiply numerator * numerator and denominator * denominator.. This one you can cross cancel, but that's too hard for me to show online :S
That's 6/12.
Ok, now what's that simplified?
1/2?
Now is 1/2 greater or less than 2/3? 3/4?
Less. So...A.
It's easy to compare in decimal form if you want. .5 vs .66 and .75
Yup :D
Ok, thanks alot! I aprreciate it.
