Answer: 22 1/2

Explanation: Your multiplying the length by the fraction!!

1 1/2 or 3/2 x 15/1 = 45/2 or 22 1/2

Turn 15 into a fraction. to make it less complex to multiply with.

15 as the numerator and 1 as the denominator to represent 15 wholes!

*45/2* Turn the improper fraction into a mixed fraction!

Either answer works!
