I think its supposed to be divide so i think C. would be the answer
Answer:
3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
A couple of different methods are used for dividing fractions.
1. "Invert and multiply". Dividing by a number is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal:
(3/4) / (1/2) = (3/4) × (2/1)
= (3·2)/(4·1) = 6/4 = 3/2
__
2. Make the denominators the same and use the ratio of numerators.
(3/4) / (1/2) = (3/4) / (2/4) = 3/2
_____
For these fractions, you can recognize that 3/4 is 1/4 more than 1/2, and that 1/4 is half of 1/2. That means 3/4 is half-again as much as 1/2, so is 1 1/2 = 3/2 times 1/2. This tells you the ratio (3/4) : (1/2) = 3/2.
__
Along the lines of the above, you can write the ratio as ...
(3/4) : (1/2)
and multiply by 4 to get
= (3/4)×4 : (1/2)×4 = 3 : 2
I would simply consider saying that the answer is:
