Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
1 1/4 * 8
I don't know how your class is showing you how to figure this out, but I am going to do it the way I was taught. I hope this makes sense.
1 1/4
I am going to convert this mixed number into a improper fraction.
5/4
Now our equation is going to look like this.
5/4 * 8
Turn the 8 to an improper fraction:
8/1
5/4 *8/1 just multiply across.
5*8 =40
4*1 = 4
40/4
Can 4 go into 40? Yes!! 4 can go into 40, 10 times.
So your answer would be 10
I hope this is right... I am super sorry if it's not.
