32×1×13= ? \frac{3}{2}\times1\times\frac{1}{3}=\text{ ?} 23×1×31= ?
According to the order of operations, we must solve the exercise from left to right since it contains only multiplication operations:
32×1=32 \frac{3}{2}\times1=\frac{3}{2} 23×1=23
32×13= \frac{3}{2}\times\frac{1}{3}= 23×31=
Then, we will multiply the 3 by 3 to get:
12×1=12 \frac{1}{2}\times1=\frac{1}{2} 21×1=21
12 1\over2 21
