Answer:

The quotient in its lowest terms is 2/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's divide 1/4 ÷ 1 1/8, this way:

1/4 ÷ 1 1/8 = 1/4 ÷ 9/8 (Converting 1 1/8 to fraction)

1/4 ÷ 9/8 = 1/4 * 8/9 = 8/36

8/36 = 4/18 (Dividing by 2 the numerator and the denominator)

4/18 = 2/9 (Dividing by 2 the numerator and the denominator)

The quotient in its lowest terms is 2/9

Proof: 1/4 = 0.25 and 1 1/8 = 1.125

0.25 ÷ 1.125 = 0.22222

0.22222 = 2/9

Answer:2/11

Step-by-step explanation:

A fraction is in simplest form when the top and bottom cannot be any smaller

Firstly start by getting the common factors between 1 and 4 in 1/4 and 11 and 8 in 11/8. The common factor is 1 in 1/4 and 1 in 11/8. 1÷1/4÷1= 1/4. 11÷1/8÷1 = 11/8.

1/4÷ 11/8 =2/11.

For any perfect square trinomial (quadratic), the constant term (last term) must be positive.

Ronch [10]

Answer:

For the perfect square trinomial (quadratic) i.e. $\left(x\:+\:3\right)^2$ , the constant term (last term) is positive.

Step-by-step explanation:

"Perfect square trinomials" are termed as the quadratics that are the outcomes of squaring binomials.

For example:

$\left(x\:+\:3\right)^2$

$\mathrm{Apply\:Perfect\:Square\:Formula}:\quad \left(a+b\right)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2$

$a=x,\:\:b=3$

$=x^2+2x\cdot \:3+3^2$

$=x^2+6x+9$

Therefore, for the perfect square trinomial (quadratic) i.e. $\left(x\:+\:3\right)^2$ , the constant term (last term) is positive.
