Question

Find the quotient 4/12 divided by 4/12

Answer 1

1

Explanation:

When dividing fractions, we need to flip our second number (find its reciprocal) and change the division sign to a multiplication sign:

`(4)/(12)` ·
`(12)/(4)`

Now we see that the two fours and the two twelves cancel out:

`(4)/(12)` ·
`(12)/(4)`

↑

cancel out

So, we are left with 1.

Hope this helped! :)

Explanation:

Keep-Change-Flip

4/12 (keep) × (change) 12/4 (flip)

4/12 × 12/4

4 × 12 = 48

12 × 4 = 48

48/48 = 1
