Question

Brenden Read 3/4 of a book that was 7/8 inches thick. How much of the book, in inches, did he read?

Answer 1

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how much 3/4 of a number is, multiply 3.4 by the number. Since the book is 7/8 inches thick, Brenden read 3/4 * 7/8.

To multiply fractions, multiply straight across numerator and denominator.

3/4 * 7/8 = 3*7/ 4*8 = 21/32
