Question

I need the answer and how you got it please
3/5 divide by 3/4

Answer 1

`(4)/(5)`

Explanation:

The rule to divide a fraction by another fraction is to multiply the top fraction by the reciprocal (denominator to numerator and numerator to denominator) of the bottom fraction.

Thus, we have:

`((3)/(5))/((3)/(4))\\=(3)/(5)*(4)/(3)\\=(12)/(15)\\=(4)/(5)`

Note: When you are multiplying 2 fractions, multiply straight out as i did

Answer 2

4/5

Explanation:

Given: 3/5 divide by 3/4

When we divide the fraction by fraction, we have to find the reciprocal of the second fraction and multiply with the first fraction.

Here we have to find reciprocal of 3/4

The reciprocal of 3/4 is 4/3

Now we have to multiply 3/5 and 4/3

3/5 * 4/3

= 12/15

We can simplify the fraction 12/15 by dividing the greatest common factor.

The greatest common factor of 12 and 15 is 3.

Therefore, we can divide the numerator and the denominator by 3, we get

= 12/15

= 4/5

The answer is 4/5.
