The multiplication of an integer and a fraction has you multiply the integer by the numerator, then express the result over the denominator. At that point, you can reduce the fraction, if possible.
[tex]4\times\dfrac{3}{4}=4\times\left(3\times\dfrac{1}{4}\right)\\\\=(4\times3)\times\dfrac{1}{4}\\\\=12\times\dfrac{1}{4}=\dfrac{12}{4}=3[/tex]

Additional comment
Because multiplication is commutative and associative, this can be done in a way that is a little simpler.
[tex]4\times\dfrac{3}{4}=4\times\left(3\times\dfrac{1}{4}\right)\\\\=3\times\left(4\times\dfrac{1}{4}\right)\\\\=3\times\dfrac{4}{4}=3\times1=3[/tex]
