Division of fractions.
[5/8[ / [2/9]
Remember the rulefor division of fractions. ' change the sign to multiply and invert(turn over) the right hand fraction. Then proceed as multiplying factions.
Hence
5/8 X 9/2
Cancel down(reduce) if possible; not so in this case.
45/16
Bring to a mixed number.
2 13/16 The answer !!!!!
2.5
Yes. If two fractions have the same numeratorthen the one with the smaller denominator is the greater fraction.
9 5/8 divided by two is 4.8125 or 4 13/16
seven ninths 9/9 + 5/9 = 14/9 14/2 = 7
turn two and five sixths into gross fraction = 17 / 6 invert divisor = 9 / 4 multiply together = 17 / 6 * 9 / 4 = 153 / 24 = 51 / 8 = six and three eighths

7 2/9 - 4 5/8 Step one , bring to improper(top heavy) fractions. 65/9 - 37/8 Step two bring to a common denominator (9 x 8 = 72) in this case, and equivalent numerators. Hence [65(8) - 37(9)] / 72 Step 3 Multiply out the curved brackets. [520 - 333 ] / 72 Step 4 subtract the numerators 187/72 Step 5 Reduced to a mixed number. 2 43/72 The answer!!!!! NB This fraction will NOT reduce any further as '43' is a prime number'. NNB Looking at the original coefficients of '7' & '4', when subtract make '3'. However, allowing for the fractional component, then '2' is a correct coefficient. Hope that helps!!!!!!

Yes. If two fractions have the same numeratorthen the one with the smaller denominator is the greater fraction.
five eighteenths
The answer is three-eights.
In lowest terms, forty-five and one third divided by four and two ninths equal = 204/19 or 1014/19
Expressed as a decimal fraction, 2/9 / 12/8 = 0.148 recurring (that is, 0.148148148...)
47/16 or 2.9375
(2/7) of (5/9) of (3/8) of 168 = 10
9 5/8 divided by two is 4.8125 or 4 13/16
