what is 4 x 3/4?

4 x 3/4 = 3/4 + 3/4 + ? + 3/4
Since the denominators are the same, add the numerators:
?/4
This can be written as a whole number by dividing 12 by 4.
12 ÷ 4 = ?

3 answers

To solve \( 4 \times \frac{3}{4} \):

  1. You can multiply the whole number by the fraction: \[ 4 \times \frac{3}{4} = \frac{4 \times 3}{4} = \frac{12}{4} \]

  2. Now, to simplify \(\frac{12}{4}\): \[ 12 \div 4 = 3 \]

So, \( 4 \times \frac{3}{4} = 3 \).

For the equation: \[ 4 \times \frac{3}{4} = \frac{3}{4} + \frac{3}{4} + ? + \frac{3}{4} \] Since \(\frac{3}{4}\) is added 4 times in total, we can represent it as: \[ \frac{3}{4} + \frac{3}{4} + \frac{3}{4} + \frac{3}{4} = 4 \times \frac{3}{4} = 3 \]

Now the missing term (denoted as ?) is: \[ ? = \frac{3}{4} \]

Thus, the final answer to your question is: \[ 4 \times \frac{3}{4} = 3 \] and \(? = \frac{3}{4}\) to complete the sums.

can you fill in the blanks

Sure! Here’s how you can fill in the blanks step-by-step:

  1. Equation: \( 4 \times \frac{3}{4} = \frac{3}{4} + \frac{3}{4} + ? + \frac{3}{4} \)

  2. Use the information: We already calculated that \( 4 \times \frac{3}{4} = 3 \).

  3. Add the known terms together: \[ \frac{3}{4} + \frac{3}{4} + ? + \frac{3}{4} \]

  4. Sum the known terms:

    • The sum of the three \(\frac{3}{4}\) terms is: \[ 3 \times \frac{3}{4} = \frac{9}{4} \]
  5. Set up the equation: \[ 3 = \frac{9}{4} + ? \]

  6. Convert 3 to a fraction with a common denominator of 4: \[ 3 = \frac{12}{4} \]

  7. Now we substitute: \[ \frac{12}{4} = \frac{9}{4} + ? \]

  8. Subtract \(\frac{9}{4}\) from both sides: \[ ? = \frac{12}{4} - \frac{9}{4} = \frac{3}{4} \]

Final result:

  • Filled in equation: \[ 4 \times \frac{3}{4} = \frac{3}{4} + \frac{3}{4} + \frac{3}{4} + \frac{3}{4} \]
  • ? = \(\frac{3}{4}\)

So your final answer is: \(- ? = \frac{3}{4}\) to complete the equation.
