Question

Can someone walk me through 3 1/5 divided by 8/9

Answer 1

Convert the fractions:
\[\LARGE 3\frac{1}{5}=\frac{16}{5}\]
And..
\[\LARGE \frac{a}{b} \div \frac{c}{d}=\frac{a}{b}*\frac{d}{c}\]
So..
\[\LARGE \frac{16}{5}*\frac{9}{8}\]

Answer 2

how did you get 16 ?

Answer 3

Now cross cancel..
16/8=2:
\[\LARGE \frac{2}{5}*\frac{9}{1}\]
