Write answer in simplest form

OpenStudy (mstv1112):

\[\frac{ 2 }{ 3 }\div \frac{ 1 }{ 4 }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well to divide, you need to multiply by the reciprocal. so: \[\frac{ 2 }{ 3 } \times 4\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

which can then look like: 8/3

OpenStudy (mstv1112):

\[A. 2\frac{ 1 }{ 2 } B. 2\frac{ 2 }{ 3 } C. 2\frac{ 3 }{ 8 } D. 2\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B.

OpenStudy (shamil98):

8/3 as a mixed number is simply\[2 \frac{ 2 }{ 3 }\]

OpenStudy (shamil98):

Where the 2 on the side is multiplied 3 and added by the denominator resulting in 8/3

OpenStudy (shamil98):

added by the numerator*
