Question

Carry out the following divisions.
(i) 2/3 ÷ 1/4 (ii) 5/9 ÷ 3/2 (iii) 3/7 ÷ 5/11 (iv) 11/12 ÷ 4/7

Answer 1

1. 2/3÷1/4. 2.5/9÷3/2 =5/9×2/3=10/27
2/3×4/1
=8/3

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given To Carry out the following divisions.

(i) 2/3 ÷ 1/4 (ii) 5/9 ÷ 3/2 (iii) 3/7 ÷ 5/11 (iv) 11/12 ÷ 4/7

Let us consider the first problem.

1. 2/3 / 1/4

So we can write this as 2/3 x 4/1 = 8/3 = 2.66

2. 5/9 / 3/2, In the same way we can do it as

    5/9 x 2/3

  = 10 / 27 = 0.37

3. 3/7 / 5/11

    3/7 x 11/5

   = 33 / 35 = 0.94

4. 11/12 / 4/7

    11/12 x 7/ 4

   = 77/48 = 1.604
