what is 3/4 x 1/8. write in simplest form. please show work for me to understand
You want to have a common denominator. Multiply 3/4 by two and get 6/8. Multiply 6 times 1 and get 6. That's 6/8 since the denominators are the same. Simplify by dividing 6/8 by two and you get 3/4.
The Answer is \(\dfrac{3}{32}\)
Let us consider two fractions \(\dfrac{x}{y}\) and \(\dfrac{a}{b}\) where y ≠0 & b≠0
From properties of fractions we can write
\(\dfrac{x}{y} \times \dfrac{a}{b} = \dfrac{xa}{yb}\) .....(1)
The product of two fractions can be found out using the equation (1)
so using equation (1) we can write
\(\dfrac{3}{4} \times \dfrac{1}{8} = \dfrac{3}{32}\)
