Solution

Simplifying

To multiply more than one fraction we have to simply multiply their numerators and denominators separately.

So,
$\frac{3}{4} \times \frac{1}{2} = \frac{3 \times 1}{4 \times 2} = \frac{3}{8}$

Hence, given expression simplifies to $\frac{3}{8}$

Question 22

Which of the following is an example of distributive property of multiplication over addition for rational numbers.
(a) $- \frac{1}{4} \times {\frac{2}{3} + (\frac{- 4}{7})} = [- \frac{1}{4} \times \frac{2}{3}] + [- \frac{1}{4} \times (\frac{- 4}{7})]$
(b) $- \frac{1}{4} \times {\frac{2}{3} + (\frac{- 4}{7})} = [\frac{1}{4} \times \frac{2}{3}] - (\frac{- 4}{7})$
(c) $- \frac{1}{4} \times {\frac{2}{3} + (\frac{- 4}{7})} = \frac{2}{3} + (- \frac{1}{4}) \times \frac{- 4}{7}$
(d) $- \frac{1}{4} \times {\frac{2}{3} + (\frac{- 4}{7})} = {\frac{2}{3} + (\frac{- 4}{7})} - \frac{1}{4}$
