Question

7 divided by 5/8 hope someone cannnnn help

Answer 1

Hello !

The answer is
`(56)/(5)`


`7 :(5)/(8)`


When you have to divide a number with a fraction you must multiply that number with the overturning fraction (which,in this case,is 8/5)


`7* (8)/(5)`


Then,you can multiply the numerators with the numerators and the denominators with the denominators :


`(7*8)/(5)`

The result will be
`(56)/(5)`

Answer 2

The correct answer is 56/5

This is because when you divide by a fraction, it is the same as multiplying by that same fraction flipped. So we start with:

7 ÷ 5/8

Now we can flip it and change it to multiply.

7 * 8/5

Then when we multiply, we multiply the 7 times the 8 since they are our two numerators. You never need to multiply the denominator by either unless there is another denominator.

56/5
