Answer:

d = 9/10

Explanation:

Hi,

d divided by 5/6 = 3/4

You can't divide fractions, instead, you flip the fraction and multiply. So, in this case, you would flip 5/6 to get 6/5 and multiply it by 3/4 to get d.

d ÷ 5/6 = 3/4

Multiply both sides by 6/5 (remember to flip)

d = 3/4 x 6/5

(when multiplying fractions, you can multiply straight across)

d = 18/20

(simplify - both numbers can be divided by 2)

d = 9/10

Hope this helps :)
