17/17 that equals 1. But for some reason it won't let me post without explaining it to you. So 17 divided by 17 is 1

Answer 2

The correct option is B) 17/17.

Explanation:

Consider the provided provided information.

We need to select an example of the number one.

For number one the denominator or numerator should be the same number.

Now consider the provided options only option B) 17/17 has the same number in numerator and denominator.

Thus, the example of the number one is B) 17/17.

We can check this by finding the approximate value of all the option.

Consider the option A) 18/17

If we divide 18 by 17 we get 1.059 approximately.

Thus, 18/17 is not an example of the number one.

Consider the option B) 17/17

If we divide 17 by 17 we get 1.

Thus, 17/17 is an example of the number one.

Consider the option C) 17/18

If we divide 17 by 18 we get 0.944 approximately.

Thus, 17/18 is not an example of the number one.

Consider the option D) 16/12

If we divide 16 by 12 we get 1.33 approximately.

Thus, 16/12 is not an example of the number one.

Hence, the correct option is B) 17/17.
