Amother is 1 3/4 times as tall as her son. her son is 3 feet tall. how tall is the mother?

In order to find the answer to this question, you need to multiply the fractions. But before we do that, we need to turn the mixed fraction into a proper fraction. 1 3/4 would turn into 7/4 because you multiply the denominator by the whole number and add the numerator. So we come out with:

7/4 x 3/1 = 21/4

Can we simplify 21/4? No, we can't. However, we need to turn it back into a mixed fraction. We can do that by actually dividing the numbers. 21 divided by 4 is 5 with a remainder of 1, so we come out with our answer.

The mom is 5 1/4 feet tall :) Hope this helps!

Hope i can you!
