4 x 3/4

Question

4 x 3/4 = 3/4 + 3/4 + 3/4 + 3/4
Since the denominator are the same, add the numerators
____
This can be written as a whole number by dividing 12 by 4
12 ÷ 4 = _____

Answer 1

Let's solve the problem step by step.

1. We have \( 4 \times \frac{3}{4} \). This can indeed be written as \( \frac{3}{4} + \frac{3}{4} + \frac{3}{4} + \frac{3}{4} \).

2. Since the denominators are the same, we can add the numerators: \[ \frac{3}{4} + \frac{3}{4} + \frac{3}{4} + \frac{3}{4} = \frac{3 + 3 + 3 + 3}{4} = \frac{12}{4}. \]

3. Now, we can convert \( \frac{12}{4} \) into a whole number by dividing 12 by 4: \[ 12 \div 4 = 3. \]

So, the answer for the blank is:
