Question

andrea made a mistake when trying to find \\(\frac{3}{4}\\) of 24. andrea’s work is shown.
how can andrea solve the problem correctly?
andrea can divide 24 by \\(\boxed{4}\\) and then multiply the result by \\(\boxed{3}\\).
what is \\(\frac{3}{4}\\) of 24?
\\(\frac{3}{4}\\) of 24 is \\(\boxed{}\\).
andreas work:
find \\(\frac{3}{4}\\) of 24.
first, divide by 3.
24 ÷ 3 = 8
then multiply by 4.
4 × 8 = 32
so, \\(\frac{3}{4}\\) of 24 is 32.

Explanation:

Step1: Divide 24 by 4

To find $\frac{1}{4}$ of 24, we divide 24 by 4. So, $24 \div 4 = 6$.

Step2: Multiply the result by 3

Now, to find $\frac{3}{4}$ of 24, we multiply the result from Step 1 by 3. So, $6 \times 3 = 18$.

Answer:

18
