3/4 x 8/5
Let's estimate that since 8/5 is more than 1 that your answer is probably just over 1.
First cancel to simplify:
3/1 * 2/5 = 6/5 = 1 1/5
3/4 x 8/5 = 24/20 = 12/10 = 6/5
You will need to supply your own benchmarks. I don't know how your teacher is using them.
im pretty sure that a bench mark is an estimate and to do this u muliply top and thats ur top nuber and multiply the bottom and thats ur bottom number I think sorry if im wrong
