Question

Which values of a, b, and c correctly represent the answer in simplest form?

4 1/2 divided 1 1/4 = a b/c
Answers: A=3, B = 6, c=10
A=3, b=3. c=5
a=5.b=3.c=3
A=10, b=6, c=3

Answer 1

the correct answer would be C.

Explanation:

The answer should be 5

Answer 2

Answer is option 2nd: a=3,b=3,c=5

`4(1)/(2)=(9)/(2)`

`1(1)/(4)=(5)/(4)`

given is :

`(4(1)/(2))/(1(1)/(4))=a(b)/(c)`

`((9)/(2))/((5)/(4)) =(9)/(2)*(4)/(5)`

=
`(18)/(5)=3(3)/(5)`

Hence, a=3 , b= 3, c = 5
