What is 3/4 of 1/2?

Answer 1

3/4 of 1/2

⚠️REMEMBER IN MATH THE WORD *OF* STANDS FOR MULTIPLICATION⚠️

so 3/4 x 1/2

when multiplying two fractions, we multiply the numerators together and the denominators together

(3 x 1) / (1 x 2)

that is

3/8

so 3/4 of 1/2 is 3/8

Hope this helps :)

`(3)/(4) *(1)/(2)`
