Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to perform the division:

\displaystyle\frac{11}{12}\div\frac{3}{16}

We turn it into a multiplication of the first fractions times the reciprocal of the second fraction:

\displaystyle\frac{11}{12}\cdot\frac{16}{3}

We can simplify the 16 on top with the 12 on bottom by dividing them by the common divisor 4, to get:

\displaystyle\frac{11}{3}\cdot\frac{4}{3}

Then we perform the multiplication:

\displaystyle\frac{44}{9}

We then divide 44 by 9 to get quotient 4 and remainder 8.

So we can write the result as the following mixed number:

4\displaystyle\frac{8}{9}

We are only asked for the whole part, which is 4. It means there are 4 whole 3/16 foot sections in the 11/12 foot wooden board.

You have to give them the same denominator so multiply 11/12 by 4 and 3/16 by 3. giving you 44/48 and 9/48. then divied 44 by 9 giving you 4.8888
there for there are 4 whole 3/16 sections of the 11/12 board

Freddy has a shelf that is 72/5 inches wide. How many catalogs can freddy arrange on the shelf if each catalog is 4/5 of an inch
Leni [432]
Hey!

72/5 ÷ 4/5 

All you have to do is divide 72 by 4 because the denominator is the same.

72 ÷ 4 = 18

Answer ⇒ 18 catalogs

Hope this helps! :)
