i got 0.5

AZ · Answer

How?

We have
$\dfrac{3}{8} \times \dfrac{1}{2} = ?$

We have to multiply the numerators together
What is 3 * 1 = ?

And then we multiply the denominators with each other
What is 8 * 2 = ?

AZ · Answer

Remember in fractions

$\dfrac{\text{numerator}}{\text{denominator}}$

the numerator is the number on top
the denominator is the number on the bottom in the fraction

So for your question We have $\dfrac{3}{8} \times \dfrac{1}{2} = ?$ Which is equal to $\dfrac{3\times 1}{8 \times 2} = \dfrac{??}{??}$

jarvispacheco · Answer

Lets do for example. 
7/8 * 3/4
it is 21/32, because you multiply the numberators (7 and 3) which is 21, and then the denominators 8 and 4, which is 32. You could simplify it to a smaller fraction, but it is just an example.

AZ · Answer

And what does 3/16 mean?

It means if you had a pie

and you cut it into 16 slices, then you would have 3 of those pieces

AZ · Answer

Now take a look at your answer choices
