Question

(56/7)*(42/7)= how do you solve this problem can someone explain it to me

Answer 1

To multiply fractions, multiply straight across. Multiply the numerators and the denominators. Multiply 56 times 42 and 7 times 7.

`(56*42)/(7*7) = (2352)/(49)`

You can simplify 2352/49 even more by dividing 2352 by 49. 2352/49 = 48, so your answer is 48.
