Answer 3

8 divided by 4 1/2 = 1.77777777778. However then taken down to simplest form: 1.77777777778 = 1 7/9.
\[1\frac{ 7 }{ 9 }\]
However to learn about dividing fractions:
Step 1. Turn the second fraction (the one you want to divide by) upside down
(this is now a reciprocal).

Step 2 Multiply the first fraction by that reciprocal

Step 3. Simplify the fraction (if needed)
