Question

What is 4/9 divded by 1/3

Answer 1

a/b divided by c/d=a/b time d/c
the reason it works is

you have

`( (4)/(9) )/( (1)/(3) )`
fractions in the denomenator is scary
make it one
remember that a/b times b/a=1 so 1/3 times 3/1=1
times the whole thing by 1 to keep is same

`( (4)/(9) )/( (1)/(3) )` times
`( (3)/(1) )/( (3)/(1) )`=

`( ((4)/(9))((3)/(1)) )/( ((1)/(3))((3)/(1)) )`=

`( (12)/(9) )/( (3)/(3) )`=

`( (12)/(9) )/( 1)`=
12/9=4/3

reault is 4/3

Answer 2

Easiest way is to flip the divisor and multply.

4/9 divided by 1/3
is the same as 4/9 times 3/1

Should be pretty easy to go the rest of the way yourself.
