Question

calculate \\(\frac{8}{12} \times \frac{3}{2}\\)

Explanation:

Step1: Rotate to read the problem

The rotated problem is: $\frac{20}{3} \times \frac{8}{12}$

Step2: Simplify the fractions

Simplify $\frac{8}{12}$ to $\frac{2}{3}$, so the expression becomes $\frac{20}{3} \times \frac{2}{3}$

Step3: Multiply numerators and denominators

Multiply numerators: $20 \times 2 = 40$; Multiply denominators: $3 \times 3 = 9$
Expression: $\frac{20 \times 2}{3 \times 3} = \frac{40}{9}$

Answer:

$\frac{40}{9}$ or $4\frac{4}{9}$
