Question

Divide the fractions:

$\frac{1}{2}$\div $\frac{1}{3}$

Answer

When dividing fractions, first we flip the second fraction in the problem. Then we multiply the numbers on the top together and the numbers on the bottom together. Finally simplify accordingly.

$\frac{1}{2}$\div $\frac{1}{3}$=\frac{1}{2}$\cdot $\frac{3}{1}$=\frac{3}{2}$=1$\frac{1}{2}$

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

Divide the fractions:

$\frac{7}{9}$\div $\frac{5}{6}$

Answer

When dividing fractions, first we flip the second fraction in the problem. Then we multiply the numbers on the top together and the numbers on the bottom together. Finally simplify accordingly.

$\frac{7}{9}$\div $\frac{5}{6}$=\frac{7}{9}$\cdot $\frac{6}{5}$=\frac{42}{45}$\div $\frac{3}{3}$=\frac{14}{15}$

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

Divide the fractions:

$\frac{2}{5}$\div $\frac{3}{4}$

Answer

When dividing fractions, first we flip the second fraction in the problem. Then we multiply the numbers on the top together and the numbers on the bottom together. Finally simplify accordingly.

$\frac{2}{5}$\div $\frac{3}{4}$=\frac{2}{5}$\cdot $\frac{4}{3}$=\frac{8}{15}$

Question

Multiply:

$\frac{5}{6}$\cdot $\frac{2}{50}$

Answer

Remember, when multiplying fractions, multiply straight across.

But first, try to see if you can reduce diagonally. You can in this case.

Then, multiply across to get your answer of $\frac{1}{30}$ .

Make sure it's in simplest form.

Question

Divide the fractions: $$\frac{\frac{1}{3}$\div$\frac{1}{9}$}{$\frac{7}{2}$}$

Answer

Evaluate the top term first. We can change the sign to multiplication and take the reciprocal of the second term.

$$\frac{1}{3}$\div$\frac{1}{9}$ = $\frac{1}{3}$\times $\frac{9}{1}$ = 3$

Rewrite the fraction.

$$\frac{\frac{1}{3}$\div$\frac{1}{9}$}{$\frac{7}{2}$}=\frac{3}{\frac{7}${2}}$

Write the complex fraction using the division sign and repeat the process.

$\frac{3}{\frac{7}${2}}= 3\div $\frac{7}{2}$= 3\times $\frac{2}{7}$ =\frac{6}{7}$

The answer is: $\frac{6}{7}$

Compare your answer with the correct one above
