Answer:


1(5)/(9)

Explanation:

This is the answer because:

1) Reduce the expression, if possible, by cancelling the common factors.

2) You can also find the reciprocal of 1 1/2 = 3/2 while dividing the expression:

1. Convert both fractions into improper fractions:


2(1)/(3) = (7)/(3)


1(1)/(2) = (3)/(2)

2. Divide both fractions:


(7)/(3) ÷
(3)/(2) =
(7)/(3) x
(2)/(3) =
(14)/(9) =
1(5)/(9)

Therefore, the answer is
1(5)/(9)

Hope this helps! :D
