The reciprocal of 3/8 would be 8/3 (basically reversing the numbers).
When dividing fractions, you can just multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction instead of dividing by the second fraction.
3/4 ÷ 3/8
= 3/4 × 8/3
Simplifying gives us the final answer:
= 2
Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!
Answer:
5 and 1/2
Step-by-step explanation: 2 goes into 11 5 times without passing it. That one that is left over would be the numerator and 2 as the demonator.
Answer:
y = 3x -8
Step-by-step explanation:
I find it convenient to start with a version of the point-slope form of the equation for a line. That is, for point (h, k) and slope m, ...
y = m(x -h) +k
For your m=3 and (h, k) = (3, 1), this equation becomes ...
y = 3(x -3) +1
Eliminating parentheses puts this in the form you desire:
y = 3x -8
They are all even numbers
2 x 1/6 = 2/6 which can be reduced to 1/3
4 x 3/8 = 1 and 4/8 which can again be reduced to 1 and 1/2
problem 2 - 3/4
problem 3 - 2 (whole number)
