Question

272/12=??/
can you help me please???

Answer 1

22.6

Explanation:

Okay basically you can do this in your head. The first two numbers can go into 12.

12×2=24

27-24=3

You have 32 left. Only 24 can go into it.

32-24=8

Now you need a decimal point to get a 0 to help you.

You have 22. right now

80 can only go into 72.

12×6=72

So this number can go on and on but we will end at 22.6!

Answer 2

`(68)/(3)` or
`22(2)/(3)`

Explanation:

We have the fraction
`(272)/(12)` , and we want to simplify it.

272 is divisible by 4, so 272/4 = 68

12 is also divisible by 4, so 12/4 = 3

The fraction is now simplified to
`(68)/(3)` .

If you want this as a mixed number, then:

68 = 3 * 22 + 2

So,
`(68)/(3)` = 22
`(2)/(3)`

Hope this helps!
