Question

State your answer as a mixed number in simplest from 1/1/2 dived 1/3

Answer 1

To state the expression 1/1/2 divided by 1/3 as a mixed number in simplest form, we need to perform the division and convert the resulting fraction. The answer is 1 1/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the expression 1/1/2 divided by 1/3 as a mixed number in simplest form, we need to perform the division and then convert the resulting fraction to a mixed number. Here are the steps:

1. Since division is the same as multiplication by the reciprocal, we can rewrite the expression as (1/1/2) * (3/1).
2. To multiply the fractions, we multiply the numerators and the denominators separately: (1 * 3) / (1 * 2) = 3/2.
3. To convert the fraction 3/2 to a mixed number, we divide the numerator (3) by the denominator (2).
4. The quotient is 1 with a remainder of 1. So the mixed number is 1 1/2.
