cathleen planned to walk her dog for 3/4 f a mile after it started to rain she decided to only walk 1/2 of that distance what fraction of a mile did cathleen walk her dog

Respuesta :

Answer:

Cathleen walked 3/8 mile.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are trying to find 1/2 of 3/4, we'll start by converting 3/4 into a form where we can find 1/2, becuase 1.5/4 is not a valid answer.

The simplest form other than 3/4 would be 6/8, we'll get that by multiplying 3 by 2 and 4 by 2. We just need to find half of 6, which is 3. Therefore, Cathleen walked 3/8 mile.
