what is 3/5 of 50

3/5 of 50

150/5 = ?

30

Yep. Good job!

14 x 3/5

i asked my dad can i dot stand as a x

he said no is that true?

A dot can stand as an x in multiplication actually. Perhaps he's not familiar with that.

Also 14*3/5 is 42/5 which is 8 2/5.

i told him that but he said dont get mixed up with algebra*

What context is your dad referring to?

algebra and regular math is the same a dot can act like an x because it works that way
