Before our white brothers came to civilize us we had no jails. Therefore we had no criminals. You can’t have criminals without a

jail. We had no locks or keys, and so we had no thieves. If a man was so poor that he had no horse, tipi or blanket, someone gave him these things. We were to uncivilized to set much value on personal belongings. We wanted to have things only in order to give them away. We had no money, and therefore a man’s worth couldn’t be measured by it. We had no written law, no attorneys or politicians, therefore we couldn’t cheat. We really were in a bad way before the white men came, and I don’t know how we managed to get along without these basic things which, we are told, are absolutely necessary to make a civilized society."

What is 1 over 2 of 1 over 3
MAVERICK [17]

Answer: Divide: 1/

2

: 1/

3

= 1/

2

· 3/

1

= 1 · 3/

2 · 1

= 3/

2

Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal value of the second fraction. The first sub-step is to find the reciprocal (reverse the numerator and denominator, reciprocal of 1/

3

is 3/

1

) of the second fraction. Next, multiply the two numerators. Then, multiply the two denominators. In the following intermediate step, it cannot further simplify the fraction result by canceling.

In other words - one half divided by one third = three halfs.
