Answer:

Three-halves times 8 = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

3/2 x 8/1

Step-by-step explanation:

To divide fractions take the reciprocal (invert the fraction) of the divisor and multiply the dividend. This is the quickest technique for dividing fractions. The top and bottom are being multiplied by the same number and, since that number is the reciprocal of the bottom part, the bottom becomes one.

3/2 x 8/1 is equation because you have to put the 8 over 1 and multiply the numbers.

  • 3 x 8=24
  • 2 x 1= 2

Now the fraction is 24/2.

The last thing to do is simplify the fraction.

24/2= 12
