Answer:
3/7 ÷ 2/7 = 3/2
3/4÷5/6 = 9/10
Step-by-step explanation:
The key rule to understanding how to divide fractions is...
KEEP SWITCH FLIP!!!
Basically, you keep the first fraction, switch the sign from division to multiplication, and flip the other fraction...
Here's how you would go about this:
3/7÷2/7
Keep 3/7 and switch ÷ to multiplication
3/7 · 2/7
Now flip 2/7 so it becomes 7/2
3/7 · 7/2
Now multiply across!
3 · 7 = 21
7 · 2 = 14
You get 21/14...but don't forget to simplify!! Divide 21 and 14 by 7 to get 3/2!
And now...for 3/4 ÷ 5/6, you do the exact same thing!
Keep...3/4
Switch... ÷
Flip...5/6
And you should get:
3/4 · 6/5
Multiply across...
= 18/20
Simplify!
= 9/10
I hope this helps clarify any confusion you may have had!
Answer:
1 1/2 and 5/8
Step-by-step explanation:
problem 1
3/7 divided by 2/7
flip 2nd fraction then multiply is formula
so 3/7 times 7/2 which is 21/14 which is 1 7/14 simplify to 1 1/2
2
so 3/4 times 5/6 remeber formula
3/4 times 6/5
18/20 multiply numerators and denominators
you could also answer as 0.9
