Answer 1

1). 16 x 3/4 Step One- 16/1 x 3/4 Step two- 4 goes into 16 four times so cancel the 4 and change the 16 to a 4... Step three- 4 x 3=12 2). (81/16) divided by (9/14) Step one- Since its division we use (FREEZE CLAP FLIP)= Freeze (81/16) Clap the division sign and change it to a multiply sign and Flip the riprocals (9/14) The equation is now 81/16 X 14/9 Next 81 is divisible by 9 and 16 and 14 are divisible by 2 So the new formula i s 9/8 X 7/1 Solution=63/8 3). 2/3 divided by 4/3 Flip the reciprocals for the 4/3 New equation is 2/3 X 3/4 2 and 4 are divisible by 2 and the 3's cancel each other out Solution: 1/2
