They are equal. They're equal because if you simplify 500/600, it becomes 5/6.
Answer:
Could you give more detail?
N(1/5) = (2/15)
divide both sides by (1/5)
n = (2/15)/(1/5)
to divide fractions, cross multiply, e.g. (2*5)/(15*1) = 10/15
n = 10/15 = 2/3 or 0.666666.
When you divide 36.89/8.6, you get should $4.29 for 1 gallon of gas.
