A coin weighs 5/6 ounces. Ann picked up 3 of these coins. What is the total weight of the coins she picked up?
Write your answer in simplest form.

2 1/2 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

If each coin is 5/6 ounces and she picks up 3, we must multiply the two numbers

5/6 × 3

3 can also be written as 3/1

5/6 × 3/1

multiply the numerators and denominators separately

5 × 3/6 × 1

15/6

Both 15 and 6 have a common factor of 3 so divide both numbers by 3

15 ÷ 3/6 ÷ 3

5/2

This is simplest form in terms of improper fractions

If you want it as a whole number it would be:

2 1/2

This is because 2 goes into 5 twice evenly (whole number) with one remaining (numerator; denominator stays the same)

1,589.63 in.^3
