give the steps in dividing fraction


Sagot :

If you are to divide an expression such as this: (x/y over n/m) put it into an easier form like x over y *division sign* n over m. Find the reciprocal of n over m (which is m over n) then multiply x*m and y*n. The answer must be (x*m) over (y*n)
In dividing fraction, follow the instructions below:
1. Illustrate the equation; Enumerator to enumerator and denominator to denominator.
   [tex] \frac{3}{5} [/tex] ÷ [tex] \frac{13}{20} [/tex]
2. Make the divisor reciprocal; The enumerator will be denominator and the denominator will be enumerator.
   [tex] \frac{3}{5} [/tex] ÷ [tex] \frac{20}{13} [/tex]
3. Multiply enumerators and denominators.
   [tex] \frac{3}{5} [/tex] × [tex] \frac{20}{13} [/tex] = [tex] \frac{60}{65} [/tex]
4. Simplify your answer.
   [tex] \frac{60}{65} [/tex] = [tex] \frac{12}{13} [/tex]
