Question

my last question that i cant miss , please help. 5 8/9 divided by 8 2/3 = ?

Answer 1

plug it in the calculator, do you have 1?

Answer 2

The easiest way (IMO) for this sort of problem is to turn everything into proper fractions.
For example, in small steps:

\[5 \frac{8}{9}\]
is the same as
\[5 + \frac{8}{9}\]
which is the same as
\[ \frac{5}{1} + \frac{8}{9}\]
To add these, you'll need the same denominator in both fractions, so write as
\[ \frac{5*9}{1*9} + \frac{8}{9}\]
which is
\[ \frac{45}{9} + \frac{8}{9}\]
or
\[ \frac{53}{9}\]

Once each term is a proper fraction, dividing them should be a piece of cake :)
