Question

1 How many times does go into 1 - ? 4 2 А. 1 B) 2 - 2 2 OT C 8 3 D 4​

Answer 1

Hey there!

To solve this, we can use division. First, lets turn $1 \frac{1}{4}$ into an improper fraction:

$\frac{5}{4}$

So, we have

$\frac{5}{4} / \frac{1}{2}$

We can multiply by the reciprocal:

$\frac{5}{4} *\frac{2}{1}$

That gives us

$\frac{10}{4} =\frac{5}{2} =2\frac{1}{2}$

Hope it helps and have a great day!
