Hi!

When we divide a fraction for a fraction we have to multiply the first fraction for the opposite of the second (the one we're dividing for).

Let's do an example.

16/8 : 4/6 = 16/8 * 6/4

Where necessary you can do cross-semplifying.

So, 16 and 4 can be divided both for 4.

8 and 6 both for 2.

So we have 4/4*3/1

You can also semplify numerator and denominator...

4/4 = 1

1*3 = 3

There are 7/8 kilograms of salt in the kitchen. Mrs. Jackson used 2/15 of salt when preparing dinner . How much salt did she use

neonofarm [45]

so since Mrs Jackson used 2/15 of 7/8, the amount she used is simply their product.

$\bf \stackrel{\textit{how much is }\frac{2}{15}\textit{ of }\frac{7}{8}?}{\cfrac{7}{8}\cdot \cfrac{2}{15}}\implies \cfrac{7}{15}\cdot \cfrac{2}{8}\implies \cfrac{7}{15}\cdot \cfrac{1}{4}\implies \cfrac{7}{60}$
