Multiply. Write the answer as a mixed number.
- 1 1/3 times 7
To multiply mixed numbers, we first multiply the whole numbers, then multiply the fractions, and finally add the products together.
1 1/3 times 7:
First, multiply the whole numbers: 1 × 7 = 7.
Next, multiply the fractions: 1/3 × 7 = 7/3.
Finally, add the products together: 7 + 7/3 = 21/3 + 7/3 = 28/3.
The answer is 28/3.
With the remainders
To express the answer as a mixed number, we need to divide the fraction 28/3 into a whole number and a proper fraction.
To do this, we divide the numerator (28) by the denominator (3) and write our answer as a mixed number with the remainder as a fraction.
28 ÷ 3 = 9 with a remainder of 1.
Therefore, the mixed number is 9 1/3.
2/3 - 1/4
To subtract fractions, we need to have a common denominator.
The common denominator for 3 and 4 is 12.
So, let's convert 2/3 and 1/4 to have a denominator of 12:
2/3 = (2/3) * (4/4) = 8/12
1/4 = (1/4) * (3/3) = 3/12
Now that both fractions have a common denominator, we can subtract them:
8/12 - 3/12 = (8 - 3)/12 = 5/12
Therefore, 2/3 - 1/4 = 5/12.
Simplyfiy
To simplify the fraction 5/12, we can divide both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common factor, which in this case is 1.
5 ÷ 1 = 5
12 ÷ 1 = 12
Therefore, the simplified form of 5/12 is the same, which is 5/12.
With the trmiander
To express the fraction with a remainder, we need to divide the numerator (5) by the denominator (12) and write the answer as a mixed number.
When we divide 5 by 12, we get a quotient of 0 with a remainder of 5.
Therefore, the mixed number is 0 5/12.
