Find Part of a Group
Use a model to solve.
7/8 x 16=
Answer: 14
8x2=16
7x2=14
6/10x10=6
10x1=10
6x1=6
Please let me know if I have the above answers correct?
Thank you
Thank you for checking these it has been a while.
You are welcome.
Your answer is correct.
7/8 x 16 = 112/8 = 112 divided by 8 = 14
7(16/8) = 7(2) = 14 yes
6 (10/10) = 6(1) = 6 yes
Yes, you have the answers correct!
To find a part of a group, you can use the concept of multiplication and division.
In the first example, 7/8 multiplied by 16 means that you want to find 7/8 of 16. To do this, you can multiply 16 by the numerator (top number) of the fraction and divide it by the denominator (bottom number). So, 7/8 x 16 is calculated as follows:
(7 x 16) / 8 = 112 / 8 = 14
Therefore, 7/8 x 16 = 14.
Similarly, in the second example, 6/10 multiplied by 10 means that you want to find 6/10 of 10. Using the same process, you can calculate it as follows:
(6 x 10) / 10 = 60 / 10 = 6
Therefore, 6/10 x 10 = 6.
So, you are correct with your answers. Well done!
I also need if you can check the below
2/3x9=6
3x3=9
3x2=6
1/6x18=3
6x3=18
3x1=3
4/5x10=8
5x2=10
2x4=8
Please be so kind as to check the above.
2(9/3) = 2(3) = 6 yes
1 (18/6) = 1(3) = 3 yes
4 (10/5) = 4(2) = 8 yes
