Answer 1

Given the expression:

`(29)/(5)\text{ }/\text{ }(19)/(2)`

Where,

29/5 is the dividend

19/2 is the divisor

To be able to divide fractions, let's first recall the rules:

"In the dividing fractions, you just simply multiply the dividend by the reciprocal of the divisor."

We get,

`(29)/(5)\text{ }/\text{ }(19)/(2)\text{ = }(29)/(5)\text{ x }(2)/(19)`
`=\frac{29\text{ x 2}}{5\text{ x 19}}`
`\text{ = }(58)/(95)`

Therefore, 29/5÷19/2 = 58/95
