Answer 18

ty

Answer 19

I think when it's ambiguous where that (30) goes, you're supposed to read from left to right. In other words, you work out the \(\frac{3}{5}\) first, and then multiply by 30, which is numerically the same as \[\frac{3 \times 30}{5}\]

Answer 20

:)

Answer 21

Probable meant to be \[\frac{3}{5\times 30}=\frac{1}{5\times 10}=\frac{1}{50}\]

Answer 22

he/she said the answer was 18...

Answer 23

no stroodle, its 18, like angela and Dalvoron did

Answer 24

a she here lol

Answer 25

here's another.....5/18 divided by 15/16

Answer 26

as you can see fractions are not by strong suit

Answer 27

8/27?

Answer 28

When dividing fractions, the quick and easy way is to flip the second fraction upside down, and chance the dividing sign to an equals sign \[\frac{5}{18} \div \frac{15}{16} = \frac{5}{18} \times \frac{16}{15}\].
Then just multiply the numerators together, and the denominators together to get a new fraction.

Answer 29

\[=\frac{5}{18}\times\frac{16}{15}=\frac{1}{9}\times\frac{8}{3}=\frac{8}{27}\]

Answer 30

ty all

Answer 31

48/49*35/50*6/18=

Answer 32

\[\frac{48}{49} \times \frac{35}{50} \times \frac{6}{18}\]
