Question

1/6 divided by x = 1/2

Answer 1

We want to solve for x

(1/6)/x = 1/2

We multiply both sides by x to get the x in the numerator

1/6 = x*(1/2)

We can divide both sides by 1/2 to get the x alone on the right side

(1/6)/(1/2) = x

When simplified...

x = 1/3

Answer 2

$\frac{\frac{1}{6}}{x}=\frac{1}{2}$

$\frac{1}{6}=\frac{1}{2}.x$

$\frac{\frac{1}{6}}{\frac{1}{2}}=x$

$\frac{1}{6}.\frac{2}{1}=x$

$\frac{2}{6}=x$

$\frac{1}{3}=x$
