Solve 12 3/8 divided by 5 1/2

Please explain :)

9/4

Step-by-step explanation:

99/8*2/11=9/4*1/1=9/4

You can cancel out 99 and 11 to 9 and 1 as they are multiples of eac hother and you can do the same for 8 and 2 to 4 and 1

Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem would look like this:

12 3/8 / 5 1/2

My math teacher told us to write it like a normal division problem.

12 3/8 ÷ 5 1/2

One way to solve is to turn both fractions into improper fractions, so..

12 3/8

So multiply 8 x 12 = 96 + 3 = 99/8

Then, 5 1/2, 2 x 5 = 10 + 1 = 11/2

99/8 ÷ 11/2, 99 ÷ 11 = 9, 8 ÷ 2 = 4,

So your answer would be 9/4, which is an improper fraction. To simply, just divide 9 by 4, and you would get 2 1/4 (mixed number).
