What is the product of [tex]$\frac{3}{3}$[/tex] and [tex]$\frac{142}{5}$[/tex]?

A. [tex][tex]$\frac{524}{5}$[/tex][/tex]
B. 54
C. [tex]$\frac{424}{5}$[/tex]
D. [tex]$\frac{524}{15}$[/tex]



Answer :

To determine the product of [tex]\(\frac{3}{3}\)[/tex] and [tex]\(\frac{142}{5}\)[/tex], follow these steps:

1. Simplify the first fraction:
[tex]\[ \frac{3}{3} = 1.0 \][/tex]

2. Evaluate the second fraction:
[tex]\[ \frac{142}{5} = 28.4 \][/tex]

3. Find the product of the two values:
[tex]\[ 1.0 \times 28.4 = 28.4 \][/tex]

Given these steps, the product of [tex]\(\frac{3}{3}\)[/tex] and [tex]\(\frac{142}{5}\)[/tex] is [tex]\(28.4\)[/tex].

To match this result with the given answer choices, convert [tex]\(28.4\)[/tex] to a fraction:
[tex]\[ 28.4 = \frac{284}{10} = \frac{142}{5} \][/tex]

Clearly, none of the multiple-choice options directly represents 28.4. Therefore, the correct solution is:

None of the provided multiple-choice options fits the answer [tex]\(28.4\)[/tex].
