• A. $3\frac{18}{24}$
• B. $2\frac{19}{24}$
• C. $3\frac{19}{24}$
• D. $2\frac{18}{24}$

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

$3\frac{19}{24}$

We need to multiply $1\frac{1}{3},3\frac{1}{4},\frac{7}{8}$

$\therefore 1\frac{1}{3}\times 3\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{7}{8}=\frac{4}{3}\times \frac{13}{4}\times \frac{7}{8}$

$=\frac{13}{3}\times \frac{7}{8}$

$=\frac{91}{24}$

$=3\frac{19}{24}$
