How do you get the answer to one fourth of one and one third?

(2-1/4) x (1-1/3) = (9/4) x (4/3) = (36/12) = 3

this is a simple answer. you first do the problem one half of one third, which equals 0.166666667, then you do one fourth of one third, which equals 0.0833333333, then you do one fourth of 690, which...

3 and seven twelfths. just think of a clock.

One and one fourth = 5/4. 5/4 plus 1/3 is impossible to do, so we must make common denominators. Multiply 5/4 by 3 and 1/3 by 4. 15/12 plus 4/12 = 19/12.
