-4.5 x2.5

22west:

i need it in mixed fraction form. here is the question: What is the product of −4 1/2 and 2 1/2 ? Enter your answer as a mixed number, in simplified form, in the box.

22west:

-4.5 x 2.5 = -11.25

DanielleLove:

ok 25% is 1/4

DanielleLove:

therefore...

22west:

therefore what

22west:

hello?

DanielleLove:

one second

DanielleLove:

A mixed number is a number consisting of a whole number and a proper fraction. and if we have -11.25 and I told you that 0.25=25%=1/4 then

22west:

ok

22west:

so it equals \[2\frac{ 2 }{ 4 }\]

22west:

?

RawlsK29:

I’m not a math genius but yes, I think that I should the answer

DanielleLove:

no to convert to a simplified fraction you have to place the decimal point to the power of 10 so it would be 45/4

563blackghost:

-45/4* @DanielleLove

22west:

11 2/4?

DanielleLove:

right sorry about that

DanielleLove:

noooo

22west:

-11 2/4?

563blackghost:

1/4 not 2/4

RawlsK29:

Oh.. I see how that could be a possible choice. I didn’t not really read the whole question.

22west:

-11 1/4?

563blackghost:

yea

DanielleLove:

yes that is for the mixed number because it a mixture of a whole number (11) and a fraction (1/4)

22west:

DanielleLove:
