Answer
(a) Estimate 0 cups
Exact$\frac{7}{12}$ cup
(b) Estimate 0 tsp
Exact $\frac{1}{6}$ tsp
(c) Estimate 0 cups
Exact $\frac{1}{4}$ tsp
Work Step by Step
(a) $1 \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{1}{3}$ cups
Estimate
Round fractions to the nearest whole number.
$2 \times 0 = 0$ cups
Exact
Convert mixed numbers to improper fractions and multiply.
$\frac{7}{4} \times \frac{1}{3}$ = $\frac{7}{12}$ cup
(b) $\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{3}$ tsp
Estimate
Round fractions to the nearest whole number.
$1 \times 0 = 0$ tsp
Exact
Multiply.
$\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{3}$ = $\frac{1}{6}$ tsp
(c) $\frac{3}{4} \times \frac{1}{3}$ cup
Estimate
Round fractions to the nearest whole number.
$1 \times 0 = 0$ tsp
Exact
Multiply.
$\frac{3}{4} \times \frac{1}{3}$ = $\frac{3}{12}$ tsp
Reduce the fraction using the common factor of 3.
$\frac{3}{12}$ = $\frac{1}{4}$ tsp
