Iam very confused so i'm doing a worksheet for algebra 1 (highschool) and we're doing division and multiplication with fractions at the moment to review what we learned last year and i'm stuck. right now i'm doing #1 and ended up getting 7 so i ended up doing this as my equation..i have no idea if i'm supposed to do division with this but i tried division and multiplication and got 7 1\2 everytime i did it. and i know the answer is 1 7/8 cause i may have found a cheat sheet online but i still need to know how to do it. anyways this is what i did: i don't understand what i'm doing wrong lol.

OK first change 3 3/4 to an improper fraction and that will give you  15/4. so you got that part right.  Next, change the division sign to multiplication. then flip the 1/2 to 2/1.  Then multiply 15 times 2 and that will give you 30. Then multiply 4 times 1 and that will give you 4. then you will have an answer of  30/4. Finally, since you a have a big number over a small number you divide 30 by 4 and that will give you 7 1/2. So it turns out that your little cheat sheet is wrong because when you check your answer you should go on Math-way to check it. Also, a little background about me is that I am in 8th grade and I am taking algebra 1 too.
