Answer:
2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
expressing 1 1/2 in an improper fraction:
1 1/2 = 3/2
Hence
(3/5) ÷ (1 1/2)
= (3/5) ÷ (3/2) (convert divide to multiply by flipping divisor fraction)
= (3/5) x (2/3)
= (3 x 2) / (5 x 3)
= 6/15 (divide both numerator and denominator by 3)
= 2/5
If x = 3y and 3y = x, then y = 1/3x.
