Q. Perform the operation and reduce the answer fully. Make sure to express your answer as a simplified fraction.\newline18×74 \frac{1}{8} \times \frac{7}{4} \newlineAnswer:
  1. Multiply Numerators: Multiply the numerators of the two fractions. 1×7=71 \times 7 = 7
  2. Multiply Denominators: Multiply the denominators of the two fractions.\newline8×4=328 \times 4 = 32
  3. Write Result as Fraction: Write the result of the multiplication as a new fraction.\newlineThe new fraction is 732\frac{7}{32}.
  4. Check for Simplification: Check if the fraction can be simplified further.\newlineSince 77 is a prime number and does not share any common factors with 3232 other than 11, the fraction 732\frac{7}{32} is already in its simplest form.
