you and your friend are going to some candy. You eat 3/4 of a box of candy. Your friend eats 1/2 as much as you do. How much of a box of candy does your friend eat?
If you eat 3/4, and your friend eats 1/2 as much as you, you would multiply 3/4 times 1/2 to get your answer, so your friend ate 3/8 of the box of candy
