Question

2 over 3divided by4 over 7

please show example how it equals 7/6

Answer 1

`((2)/(3) )/((4)/(7) )=(7)/(6)`

Explanation:

we are given

2 over 3divided by4 over 7

we know that we always start from left side

so, we get expression as

`((2)/(3) )/((4)/(7) )`

now, we can simplify it

`((a)/(b) )/((c)/(d) )=(a* d)/(b* c)`

we can use this formula

and we get

`((2)/(3) )/((4)/(7) )=(2* 7)/(3* 4)`

now, we can simplify it

we can see that 2 from numerator is getting cancelled with 4

so, there will be 1 in place of 2 and 2 in place of 4

so, we get

`((2)/(3) )/((4)/(7) )=(1* 7)/(3* 2)`

`((2)/(3) )/((4)/(7) )=(7)/(6)`
