Question

Select all statements that show correct reasoning for finding 15 ÷ 2/9 * Multiply 15 by 2, then divide by 9. Multiply 15 by 9, then divide by 2. Multiply 15 by 1/9, then multiply by 2. Multiply 15 by 9, then multiply by 1/2

Answer 1

Multiply 15 by 9, then divide by 2.

Explanation:

We need to solve the given expression.

`15/ (2)/(9)`

We know that,
`a/ (b)/(c)=a* (c)/(b)`

We have,

a = 15, b = 2 and c = 9

So,

`15/ (2)/(9)=15* (9)/(2)\\\\=(15* 9)/(2)\\\\=(135)/(2)\\\\=67.5`

So, the steps are "Multiply 15 by 9, then divide by 2".
