What is 6 1/2 ÷ 3/4

Answer 1

Answer:

$The\ value\ of\ \frac{6 \frac{1}{2}}{\frac{3}{4}} \ is\ \frac{26}{3}.$

$The\ value\ of\ \frac{6 \frac{1}{2}}{\frac{3}{4}} \ is\ 8.67 (Approx).$

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

$Monique\ made\ several\ batches\ of\ soup\ for\ a\ potluck\ supper.$

$Each\ batch\ required\ \frac{3}{4}\ of\ a\ pound\ of\ potatoes.$

$she\ used\ a\ total\ of\ 6 \frac{1}{2}\ pounds\ of\ potatoes.$

As given the expression.

$= \frac{6 \frac{1}{2}}{\frac{3}{4}}$

$= \frac{\frac{13}{2}}{\frac{3}{4}}$

Solving the above

$= \frac{13\times 4}{2\times 3}$

$= \frac{26}{3}$

In the decimal form.

= 8.67 (Approx)

$Therefore\ the\ value\ of\ \frac{6 \frac{1}{2}}{\frac{3}{4}} \ is\ \frac{26}{3}.$

$Therefore\ the\ value\ of\ \frac{6 \frac{1}{2}}{\frac{3}{4}} \ is\ 8.67 (Approx).$
