Question

How to get 1/2x 2 1/2??

Answer 1

Answer:

1 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

You are multiplying a fraction by a mixed number so you have to turn the mixed number into an improper fraction.

2 1/2 -- to do this you have to multiply the denominator by the whole number, then add the numerator.

2*2= 4   4+1=5

2 1/2 = 5/2

Then, you multiply normally

1/2 x 5/2 = 5/4

5/4= 1 1/4

So, you answer would be 1 1/4

Hope this helps!!
