How do you divide a fraction by another fraction?
Poem To Divide Fractions :Dividing fractions is easy as pie flip the second then multiply !~Never flip the first!!!!!!!!!!Ex: 1/7 Divided by 1/5 = 1/7 Divided by 5/1 < you flip the second= 5/7Then Simplify(if told) till you cant simplify No more. :)
What steps do you take to divide a fraction by another fraction?
To divide one fraction (the dividend) by another (the divisor), invert the divisor and multiply the fractions together: eg 2/35 ÷ 4/5 = 2/35 × 5/4 = (2×5)/(35×4) = 10/140 = 1/14
What type of fraction has a fraction in the numerator denominator or both?
A complex fraction has a fraction in the numerator, denominator, or both. As with all fractions, it implies division, so apply the rules of dividing by a fraction, invert the divisor and multiply. EX: (a/b) / (c/d) means (a/b) divided by (c/d) = (a/b) x (d/c) = (ad) / (bc) and as always reduce if possible. EX: (2/3) / (3/5) = (2/3) x (5/3) = 10/9 = 1 1/9
How do you find the reciprocal of a fraction?
Write the original denominator as the new numerator, the original numerator as the new denominator, that is turn it upside down:the reciprocal of a/b is b/a;for example the reciprocal of 2/5 is 5/2.Invert it: eg reciprocal of 3/4 = 4/3
What positive fraction smaller than 1 is equal to itself when inverted?
We're going to say that any fraction that's equal to itself when inverted musthave the same numerator and denominator, and therefore must be equal to 1,so there's no answer to the question.If there is one, we're fascinated and intrigued to hear about it, and we're hopingthe person who posted this question will come back and reveal it.
