It depend on what type of fraction. generally we have 3 types of fractions which are:1. proper fraction eg:2/3 2.improper fraction eg : 3/2 3.mixed fraction eg: 3 and 1/2
so when you are given to divide a proper fraction then u will change division sign to multiplication and reciprocate the second fraction eg: 2/3÷2/3 you will write it as 2/3×3/2

when given improper fraction u change division sign to multiplication and reciprocate the second fraction eg: 6/5÷8/7 you will write it as 6/5×7/8

when you are given mixed fraction you first change it into improper by multiplying the fraction eg: 3 1/2=6/2 then change division sign to multiplication sign and reciprocate the second fraction eg: 3 and 1/2 ÷ 4 and 1/2=6/2×9/2
hope i helped

Solve the equation <br>-88=2+2(5m-5)

const2013 [10]

-88 = 2 + 2(5m - 5)

Distribute 2 inside the parentheses.

-88 = 2 + 10m - 10

Combine like terms on the right side.

-88 = -8 + 10m

Add 8 to both sides.

-80 = 10m

Divide both sides by 10.

$\boxed {m = -8}$

My homework says, "Does the graph represent a proportional relationship? Why or why not? You MUST explain to get credit."

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

No, the graph does not represent a proportional relationship. It is a straight line, but it does not intersect the point (0, 0). ... It's not proportional because the line does not cross through the origin. Therefore the ratio of x to y will be different for two different points on the line.
