rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

divide 12/27 what do you get?

OpenStudy (aye_my_peeps):

2.25? im confused

OpenStudy (aye_my_peeps):

oh ok :)

OpenStudy (helpkay):

sorry about that i did it wrong

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

what is 12/27?

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

@helpkay please do not give direct answers

OpenStudy (helpkay):

yes i think it is 2.25 because if you divide 12 for 27 that is what you get but only 75% sure

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

what is \[12\div27\]

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):
