Question

Small question..
49/42 simplified?
Also wondering if I got this right:
7/7 times 7/6= 49/42 (without simplifying)

Answer 1

Divide both the numerator and denominator by the GCF of 49 and 42.
I think you already know it's 7.
You are right.

Answer 2

Thank you!

Answer 3

Yes they both equal 1.1666666... But that they are equal you are right

Answer 4

\(\dfrac{49}{42} = \dfrac{7 \times 7}{7 \times 6} = \dfrac{7}{7} \times \dfrac{7}{6} =
1 \times \dfrac{7}{6} = \dfrac{7}{6}\)

Answer 5

Thank you @mathstudent55 I am ashamed of getting that wrong :(
