Reciprocal.
Except that dividing by a rational equation is much easier.
To divide by a fraction, you simply multiply by the reciprocal. For example, dividing by 3/5 is the same as multiplying by 5/3.
the fraction means for you to divide but if you are doing inverse operation, you are multiplying.
The answer is rational when you divide one whole number by another one.
If you divide a rational expression by another rational expression, you will again get a rational expression.
If you divide an integer by another integer, the result is a rational number by definition.
To divide a whole number by a fraction, you can rewrite the fraction as a whole number by multiplying the denominator by the whole number. Then, divide the resulting whole number by the numerator of the fraction. This process is equivalent to multiplying the whole number by the reciprocal of the fraction.
When multiplying two rational expressions, simply multiply their numerators together, and their denominators together: (a / b) * (c / d) = (a * c) / (b * d) Dividing one fraction by another is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second one: (a / b) / (c / d) = (a / b) * (d / c) = (a * d) / (b * c) This is often referred to as cross multiplication.
273. Another way of stating this is if x/21=13, what is x? You can find x by multiplying both sides on the equation by 21. You'll end up with x=273.
That's the definition of a "rational function". You simply divide a polynomial by another polynomial. The result is called a "rational function".
dividing by one third is the same as multiplying by three
No. If you divide an integer by another integer, you get a rational number, by definition.13/2 is rational because it is a ratio of two integers.
You don't even need an equation; just divide 8 by 1/6. This is the same as multiplying 8 times 6/1.
