divide 5 2/7 by 1/3

OpenStudy (tiffanymak1996):

\[\frac{ 52 }{ 7 } \div \frac{ 1 }{ 3 }\] is that you question?

mathslover (mathslover):

first of all what is : \[\large{5\frac{2}{7} \div \frac{1}{3}}\]

mathslover (mathslover):

\[\large{5\frac{2}{7}=?}\]

OpenStudy (tiffanymak1996):

37/7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

whats the answer for \[5 \frac{ 2 }7\div \frac{ 1 }3\]

OpenStudy (tiffanymak1996):

well, i can't just give you the answer...

mathslover (mathslover):

\[\large{\frac{37}{7}\div \frac{1}{3}}\] \[\large{\frac{37}{7}*3}\] now?

mathslover (mathslover):

can u do that now? @alyssaavila32

OpenStudy (tiffanymak1996):

37(3)/7=

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so you multiply 3 by \[\frac{ 37 }{ 7 }\]

mathslover (mathslover):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

both top and bottom by 3

OpenStudy (tiffanymak1996):

only the top

OpenStudy (tiffanymak1996):

the bottom remains 7

mathslover (mathslover):

\[\large{\frac{a}{b}*c=\frac{ac}{b} }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it would be \[\frac{ 111 }{ 7 }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now can you guys help me turn into an improper fraction??

OpenStudy (tiffanymak1996):

the one u type above is improper

mathslover (mathslover):

right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i meant a proper fraction i know that you divide 111 by 7 and get 15 no what do you do from ther

OpenStudy (tiffanymak1996):

111-(7x15) and you get the remainder

OpenStudy (tiffanymak1996):

ok?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok got it its \[15 \frac{ 6 }{ 7 }\]

OpenStudy (tiffanymak1996):

yay!

OpenStudy (anonymous):
