Question

4 and one-third divided by 5 and StartFraction 1 over 6 EndFraction The reciprocal of a fraction must be found to solve the problem. What is the reciprocal fraction that is required?

Answer 1

Answer:

multiply by the reciprocal of 31/6

Step-by-step explanation:

4 and one-third = 4 1/3

5 and StartFraction 1 over 6 EndFraction = 5 1/6

Therefore,

4 1/3 ÷ 5 1/6

= 13/3 ÷ 31/6

To solve the problem, multiply 13/3 by the reciprocal of 31/6

The reciprocal of 31/6 = 6/31

So,

13/3 ÷ 31/6

= 13/3 × 6/31

= (13 * 6) / (3 * 31)

= 78 / 93

= 26/31
