Anna said that the product of 7/8x 1/2=7/2

Ana is false. The answer is 7/16 because 7*1=7 and 8*2=16

Hey, I'm Steel42 and I am here to help you today :)

This is false, 7/8 x 1/2 = 7/16 because you multiply the numerators: 7 x 1 = 7 and multiply the denominators: 8 x 2 = 16. So the answer is 7/16 not 7/2. Plus, 7/2 is a improper fraction.

Hope this helps

 

I’m pretty sure the * means multiplication. so, if you multiply 5*1, it would equal 5. they are basically are-writing 5x1 as 5*1. so they would be… 5 10152025303540455055
