Simplify
hurry need help !!!

Answer 1

2

Explanation:

The shaded fractions can be written as,

`(2)/(5)` and
`(1)/(4)`

To be able to multiply we have to give them a common denominator.

The number that they can both go into is 20.

5 x 4 is 20 so we do that to the numerator as well.

2 x 4 is 8 so we have 8/20 and the other fraction would be 5/20

Now we can multiply 8 x 5 to get 40 so the answer would be 40/20. Bevause that is improper we divide 40/20 is 2.

Hope that helps and have a great day!
