Question

12 one half times one nine

Answer 1

Answer:

$1\frac{7}{18}$  or one seven eighteenths

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

12 one half times one nine is the same that multiply 12 one half by one nine

so

$(12\frac{1}{2})(\frac{1}{9})$

Convert mixed number to an improper fraction

$12\frac{1}{2}=12+\frac{1}{2}=\frac{12*2+1}{2}=\frac{25}{2}$

substitute

$(\frac{25}{2})(\frac{1}{9})=\frac{25}{18}$

Convert to mixed number

$\frac{25}{18}=\frac{18}{18}+\frac{7}{18}=1\frac{7}{18}$

therefore

12 one half times one nine is one seven eighteenths
