Question

Simply 2 1/2 divided by 1 1/3

Answer 1

Answer:

15.8 (15/8)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we turn the mixed numbers into fractions by multiplying the whole number by the denominator and this answer into the numerator:

2 1/2=5/2

1 1/3=4/3

now to divide, we keep the first fraction, change the divide to a multiply, and then flip the second fraction:

5/2·3/4

Now, simply multiply:

5/2·3/4=15/8 (15.8 if you need a decimal)

And you have your answer! hope this helped!
