QUESTION [tex] \frac{4}{6} [/tex] × 18

What would make it easier for you to find the answer, is to convert the whole number, 18, into a fraction. In this case, if you want to convert 18 into a whole number, while simultaneously keeping that same number and not changing it, you would turn 18 into [tex] \frac{18}{1} [/tex].

Then, you multiply, like how you would multiply any other fraction.

[tex] \frac{4}{6} [/tex] × [tex] \frac{18}{1} [/tex] = [tex] \frac{72}{6} [/tex].

But I believe there is a way to simplify this. I believe 6 goes into both the numerator and the denominator. 6 goes into 72 exactly 12 times, and 6 goes into 6 exactly one time. And there's your answer.

[tex] \frac{72}{6} [/tex] = [tex] \frac{12}{1} [/tex], which in turn equals to 12. 12 is your final answer.

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \frac{4}{6} \times 18[/tex]

______________________________________

STEP 1:

Factor the number: (2 * 2 = 4)

=

[tex] \frac{2 \times 2}{6} \times 18[/tex]

STEP 2:

Factor the number: (2 * 3 = 6)

=

[tex] \frac{2 \times 2}{2 \times 3} \times 18[/tex]

STEP 3:

Cancel the common factor: (2)

=

[tex] \frac{2}{3} \times 18[/tex]

STEP 4:

Factor the number: (3 * 6 = 18)

=

[tex] \frac{2}{3} \times 3 \times 6[/tex]

STEP 5:

Cross-Cancel common factor: (3)

So, (2 x 6)

STEP 6:

Multiply the numbers: (2 x 6 = 12)

So, your answer is 12

I HOPE THIS HELPS!
