Describe similarities between dividing two fractions and dividing two rational expressions?
They are the same. A fraction is one integer divided by another integer. A rational number can be expressed as the quotient of two integers. If you're wondering about the easier method for dividing two fractions, say ( a / b ) / ( c / d ) it would be ( a / b ) * ( d / c ).
Describe a way to compare two fractions when the denominators are the same?
The bigger numerator is the bigger fraction.
How do you find the quotient in fractions?
When dividing two fractions, multiply the first fraction by the second fraction's reciprocal. 2/3 divided by 3/4 = 2/3 x 4/3
When you are dividing two fractions how come your answer is bigger than 1?
The answer is always bigger than one only if the fraction you are dividing by is smaller than the fraction you are dividing into. Any number divided by a smaller number is bigger than 1. To divide fractions you invert he demominator and multiply: 1/2 divided by 1/4 = 1/2 times 4 = 2
What is 15 over 8 divided by 25 over 9?
(15/8) / (25/9) When dividing two fractions you flip one over and then multiply the two fractions together: (15/8) x (9/25) = 135/200
