Question

A bathtub is being filled up and after 2 3/4 minutes there

Answer 1

Well, to solve this problem, we can simply divide 8 and 1/2 by 2 and 3/4 so, let’s do that.

(8 1/2) / (2 3/4)
= (17/2) / (11/4). ***dividing two fractions together is the same thing as multiplying them but the second fraction is flipped.

(17/2) / (11/4)
= (17/4) * (4/11)
= 68/44

So, in conclusion, the answer to this question is: 68/44.
