Question

I need help solving this in simplest form

Answer 1

Think of the 7 as if it's a fraction (over one)

7                 9

_      X  3    _     =          

1                 14

then we make it all a fraction so (14 × 3)+9 all over 14 which then = 51 over 14

     7            51           51                 1

    __     ×    __   =     __    =   25   _     or in decimal form 25.5

      1            14            2                 2
