Divide 6/13 by 6/12 in fraction form

1 Answer

5 votes

when you divide 6/13 by 6/12 you should be getting 12/13

step by step :

take the reciprocal ( flipping the numerator and denominator ) of the second fraction and changing the division sign to multiplication :

  • it should look like this :

6/13 × 12/6

the next step is to multiply the numerator and denominator

  • it should look like this :

6 × 12 / 13 × 6 = 72/78

the fraction can be reduced by dividing numerator and denominator by greatest common factor of 72 and 78

here the greatest common factor will be 6

  • it should look like this :

72 ÷ 6 / 78 ÷ 6

you should get 12 / 13 as an answer

so that's it :)

hope this helped !
