Step-by-step explanation:
Multiple: 6 * 1/
4
= 6 · 1/
1 · 4
= 6/
4
= 3 · 2/
2 · 2
= 3/
2
Multiply both numerators and denominators. Result fraction keeps to lowest possible denominator GCD(6, 4) = 2. In the next intermediate step, cancel by a common factor of 2 gives 3/
2
.
In words - six multiplied by one quarter = three halves
