Answer: 1.125 or
Explanation:
- Turn the mixed fraction into a regular fraction. Multiply the whole number by the denominator, then add that total to the number in the numerator. (For example:
= 9 ×6=54 +2=
) - Once both mixed fractions are turned into regular fractions, flip one of them so they are written as their reciprocal (example:
=
) ONLY DO THIS TO ONE OF THE FRACTIONS, this will allow you to seamlessly cross multiply) - After this, change the division sign to a multiplication sign and multiply the numerators by each other and the denominators by each other. You should be left with
- Simplify!
