So when you divide fractions, you keep the first fraction (in this case 5/8) then change the sign from divide to multiply, then flip the second fraction (we’ll use 1/16 first)

So 5/8 times 16/1. 80/8. Simply to 10.

Now do the same with 5/8 and 1/32

5/8 times 32/1. 160/8. Simplify to 20.

So I good prediction would be 1/32 since you have to flip the divisor and multiply.

Answer:

Robyn will get the greater quotient

Step-by-step explanation:

Prediction: Since 1/16 >1/32

So, it will prove the smaller quotient

Susan divides the fraction 5/8 by 1/16 .

Calculation : \frac{5}{8} \div \frac{1}{16}

                     \frac{\frac{5}{8}}{\frac{1}{16}}    

                     \frac{5}{8} \times 16    

                     10    

Robyn divides 5/8 by 1/32

Calculation : \frac{5}{8} \div \frac{1}{32}

                     \frac{\frac{5}{8}}{\frac{1}{32}}    

                     \frac{5}{8} \times 32    

                     20    

So, The prediction is true.

Robyn will get the greater quotient

Translate the phrase to an algebraic expression. (Use l for length and w for width.)
damaskus [11]
Answer:
\frac{l + w}{6}
Explanation:
The sum of two numbers is the result of when they are added up. So the "sum of the length and width" is the length + width or l + w. One-sixth of the sum of the length and width is l+w divided by 6. so you get:

\frac{l + w}{6}

Hope this helps!
