Explanation:

3/6 divided by 5

The numbers in 3/6 divided by 5 are labeled below:

3 = numerator

6 = denominator

5 = whole number

To make it a fraction form answer, you keep the numerator and multiply the denominator by the whole number to make a new denominator:

3/6 times 5 = 3/30

Thus, the answer to 3/6 divided by 5 in fraction form is:

3/30

to make the answer to 3/6 divided by 5 in decimal form, you simply divide the numerator by the denominator from the fraction answer above:

3/30 = 0.1

The answer is rounded to the nearest four decimal points if necessary.

3/30 can be simplified to 1/10
