Answer box1 : 42
Answer box2 : 1

I always remember REciprocal = REverse the fraction. So the of 6/7 is going to be 7/6 and so on.

Now you can just think of it like regular multiplication. You can spilt it into 2 problems (top and bottom)

6 x 7 = 42
7 x 6 = 42

Any number over itself always equals 1, so that means anytime you multiply a fraction by its own reciprocal, your answer will always be 1

I hope this helps :)

Georgia [21]

We have been given that Judy’s brother Sam has a collection of 96 comic books.
We have been asked to find the 10 ways Sam could divide his comic books into equal groups.
This can be done as follows:
96 can be written as .
Thus, we can either have 2 groups of 48 comics or 48 groups of 2 comics. As we can see we have 2 ways to divide the comic books in equal groups.
Likewise, 96 can also be written as . Here, we can similarly see that we can either have 3 groups of 32 comics or 32 groups of 3 comics. As we can again see we have 2 more ways to divide the comic books in equal groups, taking the total number of ways to 4.
Continuing in this manner we will see that we can have 4 groups of 24 or 24 groups of 4, 6 groups of 16 or 16 groups of 6 and lastly 12 groups of 8 or 8 groups of 12 comic books, thus taking the count to a total of 10 ways in which Sam can divide his comic books into equal groups.
