Example Student Khanmigo Chat

I have no idea what to do

No worries! Let's start. We need to multiply 3 and ½ by 4. Do you know how to turn 3 and ½ into a fraction?

I think I need to multiply 3 times 2 and add 1, right?

Yes, you got it! So, what does 3 and ½ become when we turn it into a fraction?

6/2

Hmm, let's try again. You're right to multiply 3 by 2, but don't forget to add 1. Can you try again?

Why do I need to add 1?

Good question! We add 1 because 3 ½ means 3 and a half. So, we have 3 whole ones (which is 6 halves) and an extra half. What does that give us?

Oh, so 3 and 1/2 becomes six halves plus another one half, so seven halves?

Yes, that's right! 3 ½ is the same as 7/2. Now, can you multiply 7/2 by 4?

I think it's 7 times 4, so 28 over 2? So 14?

Yes, you nailed it! So, 3 ½ times 4 = 14. Great job! To solve problems like this, remember these steps:

  1. Turn mixed numbers into fractions.
  2. Multiply the fractions.
  3. Simplify the result if needed.
