Full solution

Q. Multiply. Write your answer as a fraction or as a whole or mixed number.\newline212×2×12=2\frac{1}{2} \times 2 \times \frac{1}{2} = _____
  1. Convert to Improper Fraction: Convert mixed number to improper fraction:\newline212=(2×2+1)/2=522 \frac{1}{2} = (2\times2 + 1)/2 = \frac{5}{2}.\newlineCalculation: 52\frac{5}{2}.
  2. Multiply First Two Numbers: Multiply the first two numbers: 52×2=52×21=(5×2)(2×1)=102\frac{5}{2} \times 2 = \frac{5}{2} \times \frac{2}{1} = \frac{(5\times2)}{(2\times1)} = \frac{10}{2}. Calculation: 102\frac{10}{2} simplifies to 55.
  3. Multiply by Last Number: Multiply the result by the last number: 5×12=51×12=(5×1)(1×2)=525 \times \frac{1}{2} = \frac{5}{1} \times \frac{1}{2} = \frac{(5\times1)}{(1\times2)} = \frac{5}{2}. Calculation: 52\frac{5}{2}.
