3/4 x 1/2 = 3/8

Because you find the make the denominator to be the same, which is 4, then you keep 3/4 the same and change 1/2 to 2/4 because you times both the denominator and numerator. So it's 3/4 x 2/4 = 3/8.

4/7 x 21/40 = 3/10

I already explained it and it's the same concept so yeah!

(Mark this as the brainliest if this helps!)

The value of

$\large\underline{\sf{Solution-}}$

We have to find out the value of the fraction.

Let us assume that:

$\sf \longmapsto x =2 + \dfrac{1}{2 + \dfrac{1}{2 + \dfrac{1}{2 + ... \infty} } }$

We can also write it as:

$\sf \longmapsto x =2 + \dfrac{1}{x}$

$\sf \longmapsto x =\dfrac{2x + 1}{x}$

$\sf \longmapsto {x}^{2} =2x + 1$

$\sf \longmapsto {x}^{2} - 2x - 1 = 0$

Comparing the given equation with ax² + bx + c = 0, we get:

$\sf \longmapsto\begin{cases} \sf a =1 \\ \sf b = - 2 \\ \sf c = - 1 \end{cases}$

By quadratic formula:

$\sf \longmapsto x = \dfrac{ - b \pm \sqrt{ {b}^{2} - 4ac } }{2a}$

$\sf \longmapsto x = \dfrac{2 \pm \sqrt{ {( - 2)}^{2} - 4(1)( - 1)} }{2 \times 1}$

$\sf \longmapsto x = \dfrac{2 \pm \sqrt{4 + 4} }{2 \times 1}$

$\sf \longmapsto x = \dfrac{2 \pm \sqrt{8} }{2}$

$\sf \longmapsto x = \dfrac{2 \pm2 \sqrt{2} }{2}$

$\sf \longmapsto x = 1 \pm\sqrt{2}$

$\sf \longmapsto x = \begin{cases} \sf 1 + \sqrt{2} \\ \sf 1 - \sqrt{2} \end{cases}$

But "x" cannot be negative. Therefore:

$\sf :\implies x = 1 + \sqrt{2}$

So, the value of the fraction is 1 + √2.
