Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, we need to Reduce or Simplify the fractions to do this problem.
18/56 simplified is 9/28.
12/56 simplified is 3/14.
So our equation now is 9/24 divided by 3/14. (You do not need common denominators for dividing fractions.)
To find the answer of this problem, we follow a formula, Keep, Change, Flip.
You keep it the same.
Change the division sign to multiplication sign.
Then Flip the second fraction's numerator and denominator.
For example: 3/8, flipped is 8/3.
For example: 14/6, flipped is 6/14.
So we keep the problem the same:
9/28 / 3/14.
Change the division sign to multiplication sign:
9/28 x 3/14.
Then Flip the second fraction:
9/28 x 14/3 = ?
9 x 14 = 126,
28 x 3 =84.
Our answer is 126/84.
We should reduce our answer to get the proper results.
Reduced is:
3/2
Our final answer is 3/2.
Good luck on testing!
