Help. 1/sqrt3 >To divide these 2 fractions: Change division to multiplication and multiply by the 'reciprocal' of the divisor. (1/2) ÷ (sqrt3/2 ) = 1/2 xx 2/sqrt3 which simplifies to : 1/cancel (2) xx cancel (2)/sqrt3 = 1/sqrt3.
You just multiply the number by reversed fraction. What I mean is: 26:1/"-2" = 26*2/"-1" = -52
1 Answer. Trevor Ryan. Dividing by 1 2 is equivalent to multiplying by 2 and hence the answer is 14. 14 Dividing by 1/2 is equivalent to multiplying by 2 and hence the answer is 14.
Terms. Help. 2/3 Given: 1/3 divided by 1/2 Use the algebraic property which states that a/b-:c/d=a/b*d/c. So, we get, 1/3*2/1 =1/3*2 =2/3.
It is 2 1/2 Division of 2 radical numbers is the same as multiplication of the first number by the inverse of the second number: a/b:c/d=a/b*d/c So in the given example we have: 1/2:1/5=1/2*5/1=5/2=2 1/2
10 You have to use decimals, or fractions. First let's use fractions: (1/2):(5/100)= (1/2)xx(100/5)=100/10 ...
1/2 divided by 1/3 = 3/2 a div b is the same as a xx 1/b 1/2 div 1/3 is the same as 1/2 xx 1/(1/3) 1/(1/3) = 3 1/2 div 1/3 is the same as 1/2 xx 3 = 3/2
The answer is 4/3 To divide fractions we just get the first fraction, invert the second and multiply them. So (2/3)/(1/2) = 2/3 * 2/1 = 4/3
When you have a root (square root for example) in the denominator of a fraction you can "remove" it multiplying and dividing the fraction for the same quantity. The idea is to avoid an irrational number in the denominator. Consider: #3/sqrt2#. you can remove the square root multiplying and dividing by #sqrt2#; #3/sqrt2*sqrt2/sqrt2#.
The mixed number #1 1/2# can be rewritten as an improper fraction. # 3/2# Set up the problem as a complex fraction # (3/2)/ (3/4)# The bar means to divide and also works as parentheses . Remove the bottom fraction by multiplying both the top and bottom fractions by the inverse of the bottom fraction.
