Question

solve:

\\(1/2 \times 6/4 =\\)

• \\(12/2\\) or \\(6\\)
• \\(4/8\\) or \\(1/2\\)
• \\(6/8\\) or \\(3/4\\)
• \\(7/6\\)

Explanation:

Multiply the numerators and denominators

$$ \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{6}{4} = \frac{1 \times 6}{2 \times 4} = \frac{6}{8} $$

Simplify the resulting fraction

$$ \frac{6}{8} = \frac{6 \div 2}{8 \div 2} = \frac{3}{4} $$

Answer:

• (A) 12/2 or 6
• (B) 4/8 or 1/2
• (C) 6/8 or 3/4 (Correct answer)
• (D) 7/6
