Question

There are $\frac{3}{4}$ ths in $1\frac{1}{2}$

• A. $\frac{9}{8}$
• B. $\frac{3}{4}$
• C. 2

Answer 1

The correct option is C 2

We know $1\frac{1}{2}=\frac{3}{2}$
Now to find the number of $\frac{3}{4}$th in $1\frac{1}{2}$ we need to divide $1\frac{1}{2}$ by $\frac{3}{4}$.
i.e., $\frac{3}{2}÷\frac{3}{4}$
Note that $\frac{3}{2}÷\frac{3}{4}=\frac{3}{2}\times \frac{4}{3}=2$
