What is the quotient of 5/6 divided by 1 1/2 write your answer in fraction form and simplify the answer if possible.
What is the quotient of 25 1/2 divided by 4 1/2 simplify the answer if possible.
(do not give me wrong answers bro)
To solve the first problem, we need to convert the mixed number 1 1/2 into an improper fraction. The improper fraction equivalent of 1 1/2 is (2*1 + 1)/2 = 3/2.
Now we can rewrite the division problem as: (5/6) ÷ (3/2).
To divide fractions, we multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. So, (5/6) ÷ (3/2) can be rewritten as: (5/6) * (2/3).
Multiplying these fractions, we get: (5*2) / (6*3) = 10/18.
To simplify this fraction, we can divide both the numerator and the denominator by their highest common factor, which is 2. Doing so, we get: 10/18 = 5/9.
Therefore, the quotient of 5/6 divided by 1 1/2, when simplified, is 5/9.
Now let's solve the second problem.
First, we need to convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions. The improper fraction equivalent of 4 1/2 is (2*4 + 1)/2 = 9/2, and the improper fraction equivalent of 25 1/2 is (2*25 + 1)/2 = 51/2.
Now we can rewrite the division problem as: (51/2) ÷ (9/2).
To divide fractions, we multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. So, (51/2) ÷ (9/2) can be rewritten as: (51/2) * (2/9).
Multiplying these fractions, we get: (51*2) / (2*9) = 102/18.
To simplify this fraction, we can divide both the numerator and the denominator by their highest common factor, which is 6. Doing so, we get: 102/18 = 17/3.
Therefore, the quotient of 25 1/2 divided by 4 1/2, when simplified, is 17/3.
17/3 IS WRONG BRO
Apologies for the incorrect response. Let's correct the solution.
To solve the second problem, where we have 25 1/2 divided by 4 1/2, we need to convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions.
The improper fraction equivalent of 4 1/2 is (2*4 + 1)/2 = 9/2, and the improper fraction equivalent of 25 1/2 is (2*25 + 1)/2 = 51/2.
Now we can rewrite the division problem as: (51/2) ÷ (9/2).
When dividing fractions with the same denominator, we can simply divide the numerators. So, (51/2) ÷ (9/2) = 51/9.
To simplify this fraction, we can divide both the numerator and the denominator by their highest common factor, which is 3. Doing so, we get: 51/9 = 17/3.
Therefore, the quotient of 25 1/2 divided by 4 1/2, when simplified, is 17/3.
