To simplify the expression \( \frac{33}{32} \times \frac{24}{11} \), you can multiply the numerators together and the denominators together:
\[ \frac{33 \times 24}{32 \times 11} \]
Calculating the numerator:
\[ 33 \times 24 = 792 \]
Calculating the denominator:
\[ 32 \times 11 = 352 \]
So, the expression becomes:
\[ \frac{792}{352} \]
Now, you can simplify this fraction. Both 792 and 352 can be divided by their greatest common divisor (GCD), which is 16:
\[ \frac{792 \div 16}{352 \div 16} = \frac{49.5}{22} \text{ (but it's normally not preferred to leave it like that)} \]
It's more useful, or you can continue reducing:
\[ 792 = 2^3 \times 3^2 \times 11, \quad 352 = 2^5 \times 11 \]
So common factors are \(2^3 \times 11\):
Reduced gives \( \frac{49.5}{22} \).
An alternative is to multiply prior to simplification:
Find if there are cancellations:
33 and 11 can simplify (33 = 3 * 11) so gives:
\[ \frac{3 \times 24}{32} = \frac{72}{32} \]
72 and 32 can be reduced to:
\[ \frac{72 \div 8}{32 \div 8} = \frac{9}{4} \]
So, the simplified form of \( \frac{33}{32} \times \frac{24}{11} \) is \( \frac{9}{4} \).
