Question

Find the quotient. I need help I am not very good with fractions sorry.

Answer 1

24/5 (Nothing wrong with that.)

Explanation:

Dividing is multiplying with the second fraction flipped.

4/5 / 2/12 ----> 4/5 x 12/2

Multiply across. 4 x 12 = 48. 5 x 2 = 10.

Combine. 48/10.

Simplify (divide both sides by 2) . 24/5.

Answer 2

`(24)/(5)`

Explanation:

To divide two fractions we turn the second fraction upside down and multiply two fractions afterwards

`(4)/(5) / (2)/(12) = \\ (4)/(5) * (12)/(2)`

now multiply 4 by 12 and 5 by 2

`(48)/(10)`

now simplify fraction if needed

`(24)/(5)`
