Question

Evaluate x/y for x=3/10 and y=4/5

Answer 1

Answer:

$the\ vaule\ of\ \frac{x}{y}\ is\ \frac{3}{8}.$

Step-by-step explanation:

As given in the question

$x = \frac{3}{10}$

and

$y = \frac{4}{5}$

Than

$\frac{x}{y}=\frac{\frac{3}{10}}{\frac{4}{5}}$

Simplify the equation

$\frac{x}{y}=\frac{3\times 5}{10\times 4}$

$\frac{x}{y}=\frac{15}{40}$

Simplify the above

$\frac{x}{y}=\frac{3}{8}$

$Therefore\ the\ vaule\ of\ \frac{x}{y}\ is\ \frac{3}{8}.$

Answer 2

(3/10) / (4/5)
= (3/10) x (5/4)
= (3x5) / (10x4)
= 15/40
GCF = 5 so divide numerator and denominators by 5
= 3/8

The answer is 3/8
