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

A weather forecaster says the temperature will be about-5C “give or take” 10 degrees. What is the greatest possible temperature?

IRINA_888 [86]

The greatest possible temperature is $5^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ and least possible temperature is $-15^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$

Solution:

Given that according to weather forecaster the temperature will be about -5 degree celsius given or take 10 degree”

Need to determine greatest possible temperature and least possible temperature.

Give and take in given statement means a temperature can go up by 10 degrees and can go down by 10 degrees

So greatest possible temperature will be $-5^{\circ} \mathrm{C}+10^{\circ} \mathrm{C}=5^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$

Least possible temperature will be $-5^{\circ} \mathrm{C}-10^{\circ} \mathrm{C}=-15^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$

Hence according to weather forecaster, greatest possible temperature = $5^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ and least possible temperature = $-15^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$
