the answer is 96

solve it like this...

72 4 288

__ * ___ = _____ = 96

1 3 3

my makeshift fractions may be messed up sp the problem may also be written like this:

72/1 * 4/3 = 288/3 = 96

* means to multiply

/ means to divide

= means is equal to

to divide by a fraction flip the fraction you are going to divide by (in this case three fourths) and then change the divide sign to a multiplication sign. if the other number is a whole number out it over 1. multiply across. then reduce.
