Hey there. Need some help?

OpenStudy (narissa):

yes i know i need to multiply by 3/2 right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Put 11 over 1. Then turn 2/3 into 3/2 and multiply.. Like this.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hold on

OpenStudy (narissa):

k and cross multiply

OpenStudy (narissa):

is it 22/3

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

wait wait

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

no cross multiplying unless you have an equals sign

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yep. :)

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

and it is not 22/3

OpenStudy (narissa):

then it 33/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Fibbonacci This is not a rational expression.

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

well, let us first discuss how to do this?

OpenStudy (narissa):

k

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

so, when you have a fraction and we are dividing the chant goes " Flip the second fraction ANDDDD **snap** MULTIPLY"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, say we turn 2/3 into a decimal.... (.666666) Then divide that from 11. and you get. 16.5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

16.5= 16 1/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Right?
