Question

What is the quotient of 2 3/4 divided by 1/8

Answer 1

(2 3/4)/(1/8)
first convert mixed fraction to a improper fraction
2 3/4 = ((2 x 4) + 3)/4
11/4
when dividing fractions all you do is flip the one of the fractions and multiply them
11/4 flipped is 4/11
4/11 x 1/8 = 4/88
you then re-flip the end fraction to get the actual answer
4/88 flipped is 88/4
then simplify to get
88/4 = 22

Answer 2

`2(3)/(4):(1)/(8)=2(3)/(4)*(8)/(1)=(2*4+3)/(4)*(8)/(1)=(8+3)/(\\ot4_1)*(\\ot8^2)/(1)=(11)/(1)*(2)/(1)=11*2=\boxed{22}`
