Question

1/7 divided by 5/2 equals what
please help

Answer 1

Answer: 2/35

Divide: 1/7:5/2= 1/7×2/5= 2/35

Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal value of the second fraction. The first sub-step is to find the reciprocal (reverse the numerator and denominator, reciprocal of 5/2 is 2/5) of the second fraction. Next, multiply the two numerators. Then, multiply the two denominators. In the next intermediate step the fraction result cannot be further simplified by cancelling.

In words - one seventh divided by five halfs = two thirty-fifths.

Answer 2

Answer:

0.05714285714 or 2/35

Step-by-step explanation:

EX: 2/5 divided by 7/3 = 2/5 * 3/7: 2 * 3 = 6    

                                                           5 * 7 = 36    So, your answer would be 6/36 =)
