Question 1(Multiple Choice Worth 2 points) (01.06) Determine the quotient of 2 over 3 divided by 4 over 5. 8 over 15 10 over 12 2 over 3 1 and 2 over 10

Answer 1

Answer:

10 over 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression, $\frac{2}{3} \div \frac{4}{5}$ we are to determine the quotient which is as shown;

Given

$\frac{2}{3} \div \frac{4}{5}$

multiply $\frac{2}{3}$ with the reciprocal of $\frac{4}{5}$ i.e $\frac{5}{4}$

$\frac{2}{3} \times \frac{5}{4}$

simplify the resulting expression

$= \frac{2}{3} \times \frac{5}{4}\\\\= \frac{10}{12} \\\\= \frac{2\times5}{2\times 6}$

$= \frac{5}{6}$

Hence the quotient is 10 over 12 OR 5 over 6
