$(18*6)\div3$ $\displaystyle (18*6)\div3$

Possible Answers:

$\displaystyle 20$

$\displaystyle 33$

$\displaystyle 36$

108 $\displaystyle 108$

Correct answer:

$\displaystyle 36$

Explanation:

Evaluate the following expression:

$(18*6)\div3$ $\displaystyle (18*6)\div3$

Let's begin by doing the portion within the parentheses:

$\displaystyle 18*6=(10+8)*6=10*6+8*6=60+48=108$

Next, let's do our last step

$108\div3=36$ $\displaystyle 108\div3=36$

We can double check this by multiplying:

$\displaystyle 36*3=30*3+6*3=90+18=108$

So our answer is indeed, 36.

Example Question #35 : Multiplication And Division

Reduce the fraction $\frac{18}{24}$ $\displaystyle \frac{18}{24}$ .

Possible Answers:

$\frac{27}{36}$ $\displaystyle \frac{27}{36}$

$\frac{3}{4}$ $\displaystyle \frac{3}{4}$

$\frac{5}{8}$ $\displaystyle \frac{5}{8}$

$\frac{9}{12}$ $\displaystyle \frac{9}{12}$

Correct answer:

$\frac{3}{4}$ $\displaystyle \frac{3}{4}$

Explanation:

To reduce any fraction, you must find the greatest common factor (GCF) of both the numerator and denominator. In this case, the biggest number that can be divided into both 18 and 24 evenly is 6. Divide both 18 and 24 by 6 to solve.

$\frac{18}{6}=3$ $\displaystyle \frac{18}{6}=3$

$\frac{24}{6}=4$ $\displaystyle \frac{24}{6}=4$

The solution is $\frac{3}{4}$ $\displaystyle \frac{3}{4}$ .
