2/3 t = 1/8 Out of curiosity, I solve this by multiplying 1/8 by the reciprocal of 2/3 right? Well I did so and got 2/24 while the book is telling me the answer is 3/16 Where did I go wrong?

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

the reciprocal of 2/3 is 3/2...not 2/3

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

you multiplied 1/8 by 2/3...that's why you got 2/24

Bleh I'm an idiot. Thanks.
