Question

3/5 X 40 PLEASE HELP

Answer 1

First, we need to put 40 over 1 so that we can start multiplying.
Now we multiply straight across:

3      40        3*40 = 120
_  x   _    =      _            _            Now we have to simplify 120/5 by dividing. 

5        1         5*1=        5
So, the answer is 120/5= 24. Hope this helped!

Answer 2

Hello!

Change 40 to a fraction so that it will be easier to multiply

Multiply the numerators and denominators 

$\frac{3}{5} * \frac{40}{1} = \frac{120}{5} = 24$

Your answer is 24
