How many 4/3
pint servings are in 28/3
pints of milk?(1 point)
To find out how many 4/3 pint servings are in 28/3 pints of milk, we need to divide 28/3 by 4/3.
Dividing 28/3 by 4/3 can be done by multiplying 28/3 by the reciprocal of 4/3, which is 3/4.
(28/3) * (3/4) = (28 * 3) / (3 * 4) = 84/12 = 7/1
So, there are 7/1 or 7 servings of 4/3 pint in 28/3 pints of milk.
Divide −317
by −23
To divide −317 by −23, divide the absolute values of the numbers and then assign the appropriate sign.
The absolute value of −317 is 317 and the absolute value of −23 is 23.
Dividing 317 by 23 gives a quotient of 13 with a remainder of 18.
Since both numbers were negative, the quotient remains negative, so the final answer is −13 with a remainder of 18.
Divide −3/17
by −2/3
To divide fractions, multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.
Reciprocal of -2/3 is -3/2.
So, (-3/17) ÷ (-2/3) can be written as (-3/17) * (-3/2).
Multiplying the numerators and denominators, we get:
(-3 * -3) / (17 * 2) = 9/34
Therefore, -3/17 divided by -2/3 is equal to 9/34.
How is the sign of the quotient determined?
The sign of the quotient is determined by the signs of the numerator and the denominator.
If both the numerator and denominator are positive (or both negative), then the quotient will be positive.
If one of the numerator or denominator is positive and the other is negative, then the quotient will be negative.
In the case of dividing −3/17 by −2/3, both the numerator (-3/17) and the denominator (-2/3) are negative. So, the quotient will be positive.
