How to divide fractions

Mathematics
1 answer:
Tanzania [10]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When dividing fractions, I use a method called Keep Change Flip. Let's use the example 1/2 divided by 3/4 as an example. First, you have to keep the first fraction the same. This is what you currently have: 1/2 / 3/4. Next, you have to change the divison sign into a multiplication symbol. Now, this is what it should look like: 1/2 x 3/4. Then, you have to flip the fraction 3/4 into 4/3. Now, you have 1/2 x 4/3. Multiply the fraction. If you don't know how to, multiply numerator by numerator, denominator by denominator. You should get 4/6. However, this isn't your final answer. You can simplify this by dividing by 2 to get 2/3. So, your answer is 2/3. Hope this helped you and let me know if you need more help! :D

The angles of a triangle are in the ratio of 2 : 12 : 16. The sum of all the angles in a triangle must equal 180 degrees. What i
UkoKoshka [18]

If the ratios are 2:12:16 the equation that should be used is 2x + 12x + 16x = 180.

First solve for x:

2x + 12x + 16x = 180

30x = 180

x = 6

Then plug x back in to find the degrees for each angle:

2x = 2(6) = 12

12x = 12(6) = 72

16x = 16(6) = 96

These are the degrees for each triangle: 12 degrees, 72 degrees, and 96 degrees which adds up to 180 degrees in total.

The equation, also at the top, is 2x + 12x + 16x = 180.

Enter the value of n so that the expression (y + 2) + (3y - 5) is equivalent to (ny- 3)
matrenka [14]

Answer: n = 4

Step-by-step explanation: you combine the like variables which turns it into

(4y - 3)

(4y - 3) is <em>another</em> way of saying ((4 x y) - 3)

So the 4 is turned into n making it (ny - 3)

What is 1/3 + 5/6 Help
gulaghasi [49]

<em><u>7/6 is the right answer.</u></em> First you had to add by the fractions. And it gave us, \frac{2}{6}+ \frac{5}{6}. Since the denominators are equal, combine the fractions. And it gave us, \frac{2+5}{6}. Finally, you had to add by the numbers, and it gave us the answer is 2+5=7, or 7/6 is the right answer. Hope this helps! And thank you for posting your question at here on brainly, and have a great day. -Charlie
