Answer:
The calculator performs basic and advanced operations with fractions, expressions with fractions combined with integers, decimals, and mixed numbers. It also shows detailed step-by-step information about the fraction calculation procedure. Solve problems with two, three, or more fractions and numbers in one expression.
Result:
3 3/4 * 2 2/5 = 9/
1
= 9
Spelled result in words is nine.
How do you solve fractions step by step?
Conversion a mixed number 3 3/
4
to a improper fraction: 3 3/4 = 3 3/
4
= 3 · 4 + 3/
4
= 12 + 3/
4
= 15/
4
To find a new numerator:
a) Multiply the whole number 3 by the denominator 4. Whole number 3 equally 3 * 4/
4
= 12/
4
b) Add the answer from previous step 12 to the numerator 3. New numerator is 12 + 3 = 15
c) Write a previous answer (new numerator 15) over the denominator 4.
Three and three quarters is fifteen quarters
Conversion a mixed number 2 2/
5
to a improper fraction: 2 2/5 = 2 2/
5
= 2 · 5 + 2/
5
= 10 + 2/
5
= 12/
5
To find a new numerator:
a) Multiply the whole number 2 by the denominator 5. Whole number 2 equally 2 * 5/
5
= 10/
5
b) Add the answer from previous step 10 to the numerator 2. New numerator is 10 + 2 = 12
c) Write a previous answer (new numerator 12) over the denominator 5.
Two and two fifths is twelve fifths
Multiple: 15/
4
* 12/
5
= 15 · 12/
4 · 5
= 180/
20
= 9 · 20/
1 · 20
= 9
Multiply both numerators and denominators. Result fraction keep to lowest possible denominator GCD(180, 20) = 20. In the following intermediate step, cancel by a common factor of 20 gives 9/
1
.
In other words - fifteen quarters multiplied by twelve fifths = nine.
