Question

1/7 divided by blank equals 14

Answer 1

Answer:

1/98

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Translate statement into equation.

• $\frac{1}{7}/x = 14$
• $\frac{1}{7x}=14$

Step 2: Multiply both sides by 7x.

• $\frac{1}{7x} * 7x = 14 * 7x$
• $1 = 98x$

Step 3: Divide both sides by 98.

• $\frac{1}{98} =\frac{98x}{98}$
• $x = \frac{1}{98}$

Step 4: Check if solution is correct.

• $\frac{1}{7}/\frac{1}{98}$
• $\frac{1}{7}*98$
• $14$

Therefore, the answer is 1/98.
