For which value of m is 3 2/5m= 1 1/3
pls help due in 10 min

Answer 1

m = 20/51

Explanation:

First, change the fractions into improper fractions.

3 2/5 --> 17/5

1 1/3 --> 4/3

17/5m = 4/3

Now, divide each side by 17/5

17/5m = 4/3

m = 4/3*5/17

m = 20/51

**Note: In order to divide a fraction by another fraction, you must multiply it by the reciprocal of that number:

n/d divided by n/d

= n/d multiplied by d/n
