Answer 3

When we multiply fractions, just multiply straight across...
\[\frac{ 5/6 }{ 4/10 } = \frac{ 5 }{ 6 }* \frac{ 10 }{ 4 } = \frac{ 50 }{ 24 }\]

Answer 4

but its divided by not multiplied

\[\frac{ 50 }{ 24 } = 2+ \frac{ 1 }{ 12 }\]

Answer 6

if you notice, I flipped the denominator of the original question and multiplied.

Answer 7

when you end up with the 50/24, ask yourself. How many times does 24 go into 50, and how much will remain. Then you will get your mixed fraction.
