Answer 1

AC, this is the solution:

For solving a quotient between a whole number and a mixed number, these are the steps:

Step 1: We convert the mixed number to a fraction, as follows:

1 1/3 = 4/3

Step 2: Now, we use the multiplicative inverse of 4/3 to multipliy the whole number and the fraction, this way:

The multipicative inverse of 4/3 is 3/4

8 / 4/3 =

8/1 * 3/4 =

24/4 =

6

The answer is 6.
