3/8 x 7 2/3 = ?

Question

You can use the check method (if you know what that is)!

Answer 1

I personally would change the MIXED fraction 7 2/3 to an improper one...
3x7+2 gives the numerator.
So 23/2 x 3/8 you can multiply across the top and across the bottom to get your answer : )

Answer 2

One-third of a cake is to be shared equally among three children.

What fraction of the whole cake will each child get?

Answer 3

1/3 * 1/3 = 1/9
