1/2, because 9/16 is closer to 8/16 which reduces to 1/2. It is not as close to 0/16 (0) or 16/16 (1)

Using the expression 10 x 2/5 as an example, describe how to multiply a whole number by a fraction that is less than one.
Schach [20]
To multiply a whole number by a fraction less than one, you have to rewrite the whole number in the expression as a fraction by putting a one under it.
For example, in 10 x 2/5, you would rewrite the 10 to 10/1 x 2/5.
Then, you would multiply the top and bottom of the two fractions. In this case, it would be 10 x 2 and 1x5. This would result in 20/5.
Finally, you would simplify this fraction by dividing. The final answer is 4.

Anarel [89]

Answer:

Ryo ordered \frac{12}{5} of the amount of eggs his restaurant needed

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call z the number of eggs the restaurant needs

Ryo ordered 240% of the eggs he needed. Then Ryo ordered:

\frac{240}{100}z.

This fraction can be simplified by dividing by 10 in the numerator and denominator.

Then it is:

\frac{24}{10}

It can be further simplified by dividing by 2 in the numerator and denominator:

\frac{12}{5}z

Ryo ordered \frac{12}{5} of the amount of eggs his restaurant needed
