Hello I need help with my math homework if someone can give me an example or explaining then please help
Answer:
Flip the second number
Step-by-step explanation:
To divide by a fraction, you simply flip it over and multiply
Take # 7 as an example:
5 / [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] becomes 5 X [tex]\frac{6}{1}[/tex]
Of course to make a whole number you put a 1 under it:
5 becomes [tex]\frac{5}{1}[/tex]
Then you multiply straight across (top X top and bottom X Bottom)
Lastly, simplify as needed:
2 / [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
Make the two a fraction and flip the fraction you are dividing with:
[tex]\frac{2}{1} X \frac{3}{1} = \frac{6}{1}[/tex]
which reduces to 6
To remember the steps use Keep it, Change it, Flip it.
Keep the first number, change from division to multiply, and flip the fraction you were going to divide by.
