Question

Find the quotient of 2 7/8 and 3 5/6

Answer 1

The answer to your problem is 30

Answer 2

`(3)/(4)`

Explanation:

Given the following question:


`2(7)/(8) /3(5)/(6)`

To find the answer we need to convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions, then we apply KCF (Keep, Change, Flip) to the equation and then we solve.


`2(7)/(8) /3(5)/(6)`

`2(7)/(8) =8*2=16+7=23=(23)/(8)`

`3(5)/(6) =6*3=18+5=23=(23)/(6)`

`(28)/(8) /(23)/(6)`

Apply KCF:

`(28)/(8) /(23)/(6)`

`(28)/(8) *(6)/(23)`

`28*6=168`

`8*23=184`

`=(168)/(184)`

Simplify by reducing:

`(168)/(184)`

`=(168)/(184)/46=(3)/(4)`

`=(3)/(4)`

Your answer is "3/4."

Hope this helps.
