Question

Which expression is the first step you take when finding the quotient of five over six division symbol two over three?

five-sixths times three-halves

sififths times two-thirds

two-thirds times five-sixths

sififths times thee-halves

Answer 1

The first step to take...would be flip the fraction on the bottom and change the operation to multiplication...that is...?

Answer 2

@johnweldon1993 it needs to be these 4 on the list

Answer 3

five-sixths times three-halves

sififths times two-thirds

two-thirds times five-sixths

sififths times thee-halves

Answer 4

And it IS one of those choices...read what was written and tell me what choice that represents

Answer 5

is it a @johnweldon1993

Answer 6

That is correct!

Answer 7

can i ask a few more

Answer 8

if yes here is a problem What is the sum of three and three over eight plus two and three over eight in simplest form?

six and three over eight

six and three over four

five and three over eight

five and three over four

Answer 9

Answer 10

As in mixed numbers?

Answer 11

yes i believe s0

Answer 12

\[3\frac{3}{8} + 2\frac{3}{8}\]

Do you know how to convert these to improper fractions?

Answer 13

i think so refresh me

Answer 14

1) Multiply the denominator and the whole number
2) Add the numerator to the result
3) place the result over the original denominator

Answer 15

ok

Answer 16

So

\[\large 3\frac{3}{8} = ?\]
and
\[\large2\frac{3}{8} = ?\]

Answer 17

nevermind this is to complicated

Answer 18

\[\large 3\frac{3}{8} =\frac{(8 \times 3)+3}{8} = \frac{27}{8}\]
\[\large 2\frac{3}{8} =\frac{(8 \times 2)+3}{8} = \frac{19}{8}\]

\[\large \frac{27 + 19}{8} = \frac{46}{8} = \frac{23}{4}\]

Turning this back into a mixed number is easy too...just divide....how many times does 4 go into 23? 5 times....that is 5 * 4 = 20 ...so leaves a remainder of 3..and you put that 3 over the original denominator again

5 and three over four

Answer 19
