Practice makes perfect

Before we evaluate the expression, let's first rewrite it so that all of the numbers are fractions.

2 13 * 2 14 * 1 38

a bc=a* c+b/c

2 * 3+1/3 * 2 * 4+1/4 * 1 * 8+3/8

Multiply

6+1/3 * 8+1/4 * 1 * 8+3/8

Identity Property of Multiplication

6+1/3 * 8+1/4 * 8+3/8

Add terms

7/3 * 9/4 * 11/8

When multiplying fractions, remember that the product of two or more fractions is equal to the product of the numerators divided by the product of the denominators.

7/3 * 9/4 * 11/8

Multiply fractions

7 * 9 * 11/3 * 4 * 8

Multiply
