Answer 7

(3 / 5) x 80

Division and product, you may choose one of them to be solved first. Let's choose product first, it's easier.

3x80 = 240,

then we divided 240 with 5, and we'll get the answer.

240 / 5 = 48.

48 is the answer

Answer 8

3/5 * 80 is also 3/5 * 80/1.

So multiply the top (numerators) across, you get 3*80 = 240

Do the same for the bottom (denominators), you get 5*1 = 5

You will get 240/5= 48

Answer 9

3/5 x 80

= 3 x 16                  (as 5x16=80)

= 48
