5 1/2 * 3 1/4

1 + 5 . 2/2 * 1 + 3 . 4/4 = 11/2 * 13/4 = 11 . 13/2 . 4 = 143/8 = 7 + 17 . 8/8 = 17 7/8

= 17 . 875

Detailed explanation of solution:

5 1/2 * 3 1/4

Transform the first mix number to improper fraction:

5 1/2 = 1 + 5 . 2/2 = 11/2

Transform the second mix number to improper fraction:

3 1/4 = 1 + 3. 4/4 = 13/4

Multiplying two fractions:

11/2 * 13/4 = 11 . 13/2 . 4 = 143/8

Since the numerator is greater than the denominator, We convert the improper fraction to mix fraction:

143/8 = 7 + 17.8/8

= 17 7/8 (Decimal: 17. 875)

Hope that helps!!!!!! ( Answer: 17 7/8, (Decimal: 17.875)

1. (16x² + 48x) ÷ 8x

$\implies \sf{\dfrac{8x(2x + 6)}{8x}}$

$\implies \sf{2x + 6}$

2. (56x² - 14x) ÷ 7x

$\implies \sf{\dfrac{7x(8x - 2)}{7x}}$

$\implies \sf{8x - 2}$

3. (20x² - 32x) ÷ 4x

$\implies \sf{\dfrac{4x(5x - 8)}{4x}}$

$\implies \sf{5x - 8}$

4. (18x² + 15x) ÷ 3x

$\implies \sf{\dfrac{3x(6x + 5)}{3x}}$

$\implies \sf{6x + 5}$

Answer:

It can be either one, if you prefer reading you can ask questions through text, if you prefer talking verbally then I'd say over video is best.
