Question

Divide eight and two-thirds divided by two and one-third.

seven twenty-sixths

four and two-thirds

three and five-sevenths

four and one-half

Answer 1

\[\huge 8 \frac 23~=~8 + \frac 23~ =~ \frac {8 \times 3}{3} + \frac 23~=~\frac {24}{3} + \frac 23\]
\[\huge = \frac {26}{3} \]

Answer 2

next 2 and 1 third:

Answer 3

\[\huge 2 \frac 13 = 2 + \frac 13 = \frac {2 \times 3}{3} + \frac 13 = \frac 63 + \frac 13\]
\[\huge = \frac 73 \]

Answer 4

next, the operation:

Answer 5

\[ \huge \frac {8 + \frac 23 } { 2 + \frac 13} \]
\[ \huge =\frac {\frac {26}{3} } { \frac 73} \]
\[ \huge =\frac {26}{3} \times \frac 37 \]
