Question

You have 4/5 of a square and you need to divide it by 1 & 1/4. How many pieces would you have?

Answer 1

Answer:

The number of pieces would be 16/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we have 4/5 of a square and we want to divide it by a quarter (1/4) so we would know the number of pieces we will have.

This is pretty straightforward.

What needs to be done here is to directly divide the parts of the square we have by 1/4

Mathematically, that would be ;

4/5 ÷ 1/4

by straight arithmetic, that would be 4/5 * 4/1 = 16/5
