Dear Ms. Sue,
Should I multiply & if I do will the answer be 6? Will it be shorter for Raul's throw? Now am I correct?
Your original question:
Carlos can throw a ball 14 yards. Raul can throw 3/7 of that distance. Is Raul's throw longer or shorter than 14 yards?
(3/7) * 14 = 42/7 = 6
Yes. Carlos throw is 6 times as far as Raul's throw.
