Question

Us the rule of four to make the denominator the same. If the answer is an improper fraction rewrite as a mixed number. 3/5 divided 1/3=

Answer 1

The mixed number is of the given condition 3/5 divided 1/3 = 4/15.

Step-by-step explanation:

To make the denominators the same using the rule of four, you need to multiply the denominators together.

In this case, the denominators are 5 and 3, so you multiply them to get 15.

Then, you multiply both the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the number that was multiplied to make the denominators the same.

So, you multiply 3/5 by 3 and 1/3 by 5.

3/5 * 3/3 = 9/15

1/3 * 5/5 = 5/15

Now, you can subtract the fractions:

9/15 - 5/15 = 4/15

This is already an improper fraction, so to rewrite it as a mixed number, you divide the numerator by the denominator. 4 divided by 15 equals 0 with a remainder of 4.

So the mixed number is 4/15.
