$-2 \frac{5}{6} \div 1 \frac{1}{3}\\\\-\frac{17}{6} \div \frac{4}{3}\\\\-\frac{6}{17} \times \frac{3}{4}\\\\-\frac{6\times 3}{17\times4}\\\\-\frac{18}{68}\\\\-\frac{9}{34}\\\\$

Kelsey made a mistake on line 3. Note how the 17/6 flips to 6/17. This is not correct. You keep the first fraction the same, but you do flip the second fraction. This only applies when you divide two fractions.

The third step should look like $-\frac{17}{6}\times \frac{3}{4}$

=======================================================

Part B

Here's what she should have written

$-2 \frac{5}{6} \div 1 \frac{1}{3}\\\\-\frac{17}{6} \div \frac{4}{3}\\\\-\frac{17}{6} \times \frac{3}{4}\\\\-\frac{17\times 3}{6\times 4}\\\\-\frac{51}{24}\\\\-\frac{17}{8}\\\\$

If you want to convert that improper fraction to a mixed number, then you could do something like this

$-\frac{17}{8} = -\frac{16+1}{8}\\\\-\frac{17}{8} = -\frac{16}{8}-\frac{1}{8}\\\\-\frac{17}{8} = -2 \frac{1}{8}\\\\$

Or you could divide 17 over 8 using long division to get 2 remainder 1. The 2 is the quotient that goes to the left of the 1/8. The remainder of 1 is the numerator of 1/8.

What would you have to do to change 10 cubic feet into cubic inches? A. Multiply by 46,656 B. Divide by 1,728 C. Multiply by 1,7

Semmy [17]

1 foot = 12 inches

(1 foot)³ = (12 inches)³

12³ = 1,728 in³

To change 10 cubic feet into cubic inches

10 ft³ * 1728 in³/ft³ = 17,280 in³ Choice C. Multiply by 1,728
