Sagot :
When you need to divide one fraction by another one,
here's what you do:
-- Flip the second fraction over.
-- Then multiply them.
================================
2/9 divided by 5/12 = 2/9 times 12/5
When you multiply fractions, you multiply the numerators to get the numerator,
and multiply denominators to get the denominator.
2/9 times 12/5 = (2 times 12) / (9 times 5) = 24/45 = 8/15
HI. So our problem is: 2/9 ÷ 5/12, lets start out with what I explained earlier in the other problem: KCF, which represents: Keep Change Flip, you can always use this for dividing, so what we do: Keep 2/9 we Change the ÷ sign to a × (multiply sign) and we Flip 5/12 to 12/5 (improper fraction)... So what is our problem now? :
2/9*12/5= (12*2=24) (5*9=45) So what do we have? 24/45 :) And for simplest form... you can see it is not equal :) Hope that isn't too long!
2/9*12/5= (12*2=24) (5*9=45) So what do we have? 24/45 :) And for simplest form... you can see it is not equal :) Hope that isn't too long!
