Question

3/11 divided by 2/9 equals what

Answer 1

Answer: 1 and 5/22

Step-by-step explanation: In this problem, we have 3/11 divided by 2/9. Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal. In other words, we can change the division sign to multiplication and flip the second fraction.

So, 3/11 ÷ 2/9 can be rewritten as 3/11 × 9/2.

Now, we are simply multiplying fractions. To multiply fractions, we multiply across the numerators and multiply across the denominators.

$(\frac{3}{11}) (\frac{9}{2}) = \frac{27}{22}$

The fraction 27/22 can be written as a mixed number by dividing the denominator into the numerator.
