Question

Find the answer to this question 2 2/3 ÷ 8/9

Answer 1

`\boxed{=3}`

Solution Steps:

______________________________

1.) Divide
`\bold{(2x2+3)/(3)}` by
`\bold{(8)/(9)}` by multiplying
`\bold{(2x2+3)/(3)}` by the reciprocal of
`\bold{(8)/(9)}`:

• 
  `{((2x2+3)x9)/(3x8)}`

Equation at the end of Step 3:

• 
  `{((2x2+3)x9)/(3x8)}`

2.) Cancel out 3 in both numerator and denominator:

• 
  `{((2x2+3)x9)/(3x8)=(3(2+6))/(8)}`

- We cancel out the 3's by getting rid of the 3 on the denominator.

Equation at the end of Step 3:

• 
  `(3(2+6))/(8)}`

3.) Multiply 2 and 3:

• 
  `2` ×
  `3=8`

Equation at the end of Step 3:

• 
  `(3x8)/(8)`

4.) Multiply 3 and 8:

• 
  `3` ×
  `8=24`

Equation at the end of Step 4:

• 
  `(24)/(8)`

5.) Divide 24 by 8:

• 
  `24` ÷
  `8=3`
