The Battle of Okinawa was a fierce one in which both the Allies and the Japanese Army suffered significative losses. Fearing that the conflict could go on and on, not knowing that the Japanese were ready to surrender and willing to bring a quick end to the war, President Harry S. Truman chooses to drop the atomic bomb against Japan. As we know, the bomb struck Hiroshima and Nagasaki on August 6th and 9th, 1945 and brought Japan to a swift surrender.

The battle of Okinawa affected President Truman's decision to use the atomic bomb against Japan because, on one hand, Japan didn't want to surrender, even though the USA warned them that more destruction would continue after the battle by using the atomic bomb.

On the other hand, Truman knew that more than 2 million Japanese troops were waiting to fight. Therefore, after the Allies agreed, Truman decided to drop an atomic bomb on Japan (Hiroshima and Nagasaki).

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.
