You could just multiply the whole number with the numerator and then divide the answer by the denominator. Or you could write the whole number over 1, and then simplify the numbers before multiplying straight across. 

2/3 x 36
2/3 x 36/1
2/1 x 12/1  (simplified the 3 and the 36)
24/1=24  (just multiplied across)

Calculate the value of each expression:<br> (-8)•(-2/3)<br> SHOW YOUR WORK:
inna [77]

Answer: \frac{16}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

For this exercise it is important to remember  the multiplication of signs:

(+)(+)=+\\(-)(-)=+\\(-)(+)=-\\(+)(-)=-

In this case, given the following expression:

(-8)(-\frac{2}{3})

You can idenfity that both factors are negative. Then, the product (The result of the multiplication) will be positive.

Then, in order to get the product, you need to multiply the numerator of the fraction by -8. So, you get:

 \frac{(-2)(-8)}{3}=\frac{16}{3}

You can notice that the numerator and the denominator of the fraction obtained cannot be divided by the same number; therefore, the fraction cannot be simplified.

I have a container of peanuts and I give 1/4 to my sister and 1/3 to another sister. What fraction do I keep?
Setler [38]
Find a common denominator.
we'll pick 12 so...
1/4 = 3/12
1/3 = 4/12

So you gave your sisters

3/12 + 4/12 = 7/12

You keep 12/12 - 7/12 = 5/12

La temperatura exterior era de 8 grados a la medianoche. La temperatura bajó 5 grados durante cada una de las siguientes 3 horas
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

A las 3 AM la temperatura era de -7 grados.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dado que la temperatura exterior era de 8 grados a la medianoche, y la temperatura bajó 5 grados durante cada una de las siguientes 3 horas, para determinar cuál era la temperatura a las 3 a.m. se debe realizar el siguiente cálculo:

8 - (3 x 5) = X

8 - 15 = X

-7 = X

Por lo tanto, a las 3 AM la temperatura era de -7 grados.
