Question

Roxy is multiplying 1/8 by 4/3

Answer 1

Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Make the denominators the same by finding the lcm(least common denominator). The least common demominator would be 24. So multiply both numbers in 1/8 by 3. This would eaqual 3/24. Multiply both numbersin 4/3 by 8. This would equal $\frac{3}{24} * \frac{32}{24}$ = $\frac{96}{576}$. Simplify 96/576 by dividing both numbers by 96.

96 ÷ 96 =  1                                                                                                                576 ÷ 96 = 6 and that becomes 1/6.
