Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To divide by a fraction, we can multiply by its reciprocal. The reciprocal of 5/8 is 8/5.

So, 15 ÷ 5/8 = 15 * 8/5.

Simplifying the expression on the right side of the equation, we get:

15 * 8 = 120
5

The quotient is therefore 120/5, which simplifies to 24.

Therefore, the quotient of 15 ÷ 5/8 is 24.

I apologize for any confusion. Let's go through the calculation again to confirm the answer.

To divide by a fraction, we multiply by its reciprocal. The reciprocal of 5/8 is 8/5.

So, 15 ÷ 5/8 = 15 * 8/5.

Multiplying the numerator and denominator on the right side of the equation, we get:

15 * 8 = 120
5

The quotient is therefore 120/5, which simplifies to 24.

So, based on the calculations, the quotient of 15 ÷ 5/8 is indeed 24.

Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.

Answer 4

What is the quotient of 5/6 ÷ 3 ?

2/5

5/18

2 1/2

18/5

To divide by a whole number, we can multiply by its reciprocal. The reciprocal of 3 is 1/3.

So, 5/6 ÷ 3 = 5/6 * 1/3.

Multiplying the numerator and denominator on the right side of the equation, we get:

5 * 1 = 5
6 * 3 = 18

The quotient is therefore 5/18.

Therefore, the quotient of 5/6 ÷ 3 is 5/18.

Answer 6

What is the quotient of 8/9 ÷ 6 ?

4/27

3/16

5 1/3

6 3/4

MAKE SURE U GET IT RIGHTTTTT!!!!!

Answer 7

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To divide by a whole number, we can multiply by its reciprocal. The reciprocal of 6 is 1/6.

So, 8/9 ÷ 6 = 8/9 * 1/6.

Multiplying the numerator and denominator on the right side of the equation, we get:

8 * 1 = 8
9 * 6 = 54

The quotient is therefore 8/54.

However, we can simplify this fraction. Both 8 and 54 can be divided by 2, giving us:

8 ÷ 2 = 4
54 ÷ 2 = 27

So, the simplified fraction is 4/27.

Therefore, the quotient of 8/9 ÷ 6 is 4/27.

Answer 8

Answer 9

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To divide by a fraction, we can multiply by its reciprocal. The reciprocal of 4/5 is 5/4.

So, 7 ÷ 4/5 = 7 * 5/4.

Multiplying the numerator and denominator on the right side of the equation, we get:

7 * 5 = 35
4

The quotient is therefore 35/4.

However, we can simplify this fraction. 35 can be divided by 5 and 4 can be divided by 4, giving us:

35 ÷ 5 = 7
4 ÷ 4 = 1

So, the simplified fraction is 7/1, which equals 7.

Therefore, the quotient of 7 ÷ 4/5 is 7.

For the second question, if Maurice has 4/5 of a bag of popcorn and wants to share it equally with his 2 brothers, we need to divide 4/5 by 3.

To divide a fraction by a whole number, we can multiply by its reciprocal. The reciprocal of 3 is 1/3.

So, 4/5 ÷ 3 = 4/5 * 1/3.

Multiplying the numerator and denominator on the right side of the equation, we get:

4 * 1 = 4
5 * 3 = 15

The quotient is therefore 4/15.

Therefore, each person will get 4/15 of the bag of popcorn.

Answer 10

NO the first question is WRONG. ITS NOT 7!!!!!! YOU HAVE TO PICK ONE OF THOSE ANSWERS NOT 7

I apologize for the confusion. Let's go through the calculation again to find the correct answer.

To divide by a fraction, we can multiply by its reciprocal. The reciprocal of 4/5 is 5/4.

So, 7 ÷ 4/5 = 7 * 5/4.

Multiplying the numerator and denominator on the right side of the equation, we get:

7 * 5 = 35
4

The quotient is therefore 35/4.

So, the correct answer for the first question is 35/4.

I apologize for the earlier mistake and any frustration it caused.
