Question

Help me Solve 1/6 ÷ 2/6 please

Answer 1

`(1)/(6)` ÷
`(2)/(6)`

First, apply this following rule:
`a` ÷
`(b)/(x) = a` ×
`(c)/(b)`

`(1)/(6)` ×
`(6)/(2)`
Second, apply this following rule:
`(a)/(b)` ×
`(c)/(d) = (ac)/(bd)`

`(1x6)/(6x2)`
Third, multiply 1 × 6 to get 6 and 6 × 2 to get 12.

`(6)/(12)`
Fourth, find the GCF of 6 and 12.
Factors of 6: 1, 2, 3, 6
Factors of 12: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12
The GCF is 6.
Fifth, divide the numerator by the GCF.

`6` ÷
`6 = 1`
Sixth, divide the denominator by the GCF.

`12` ÷
`6 = 2`
Seventh, collect the new numerator and new denominator.

`(1)/(2)`

Answer as fraction:
`(1)/(2)`
Answer as decimal: 0.5
