Problem

Evaluate.
Hint: Use the image to help break 7, times, 4 up into two expressions.
A tape diagram divided into 7 equal parts. Each part is labeled 4. A curved bracket above the tape diagram is labeled 7 times 4. The first 5 parts are shaded purple and a curved bracket below them is labeled with a question mark. The last 2 parts are shaded green and a curved bracket below them is labeled with a question mark.
7, times, 4equals, start color #7854ab, left parenthesis, end color #7854ab, space
  • Your answer should be
  • an integer, like 6
  • a simplified proper fraction, like 3, slash, 5
  • a simplified improper fraction, like 7, slash, 4
  • a mixed number, like 1, space, 3, slash, 4
  • an exact decimal, like 0, point, 75
  • a multiple of pi, like 12, space, start text, p, i, end text or 2, slash, 3, space, start text, p, i, end text
start color #7854ab, times, 4, right parenthesis, end color #7854ab, plus, start color #ca337c, left parenthesis, 2, times, 4, right parenthesis, end color #ca337c
