Question

what is the dividend in "A strip of land has a area of 5/6, the length is 1/12, what is the width of the other side?"

Answer 1

5/6

Explanation:

The dividend is the number that is being divided, for example in 36/3, 36 would be the dividend. To find the width of the strip of land, divide the area by the length:

(5/6) / (1/12), this means that the area of land or 5/6 is the dividend.
