Question

Write the following division expression using the division symbol and as a fraction: f divided by the quantity h minus 3.

Answer 1

Division expression using division symbol: f÷(h-3)

Division expression as a fraction:
`(f)/(h-3)`

Explanation:

a. The division expression using the division symbol is: f÷(h-3), where f is the dividend and (h-3) is the divisor. Division expressions are represented as: dividend ÷ divisor.

b. When working in algebraic manner, it is common to write fractions for representing division expressions like the one stated in the question. A fraction have a numerator and a denominator. From there we can say that:

f: is the dividend. Dividend is the numerator in the fraction expression.

h-3: is the divisor. Divisor is the denominator in the fraction expression.

`(dividend)/(divisor)`

Thus, we have the next fraction:

`(f)/(h-3)`
