Question

What is 5/8 of 36 im confused :)​

Answer 1

Answer:  22 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

since 36 is a WHOLE number think of it as a fraction like $\frac{36}{1}$

So we do $\frac{5}{8}$ multiplied by $\frac{36}{1}$ , so 5x36= 180 and 8x1= 8

now we have: $\frac{180}{8}$

NOW find the GFC, and the GCF of 180 and 8 is 4.

so we divide the fraction 180/8 by 4 so 180/4=45

8/4=2

45/2 can be simplied to 22 $\frac{1}{2}$
