Question

Divide and Simplify completely, show your work: I want to see the problem rewritten

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is 9/10.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: 3/4/5/6. This means, 3/4 is being divided by 5/6 and so you write it in that form. Take this for an example. 2/4 divided by 3 is 2/4/3.

Step 2: 3/4 ÷ 5/6. This is because, we want the question to be easy to simplify. Also, we want to write the division question as a multiplication problem. And this sign ( / ) means to divide.

Step 3: 3/4 × 6/5. This is because in Maths, when a fraction is dividing another fraction, that fraction is reciprocated ( the fraction at the right side.) Reciprocated here means the denominator is made the numerator and the numerator is made the denominator.

Step 4: 3/2 × 3/5. How? We cancelled out. 2 goes into 4 twice and into 6 thrice.

Step 5: 9/10. We multiplied 3/2 × 3/5 to get 9/10.
