Determine the quotient of 1/3/4 divided by 2/5

First turn any mixed numbers into improper fractions. 1 3/4 would be 7/4. Becuase you multiply the whole number by the denominator and then add the numerator.

So now you have 7/4 divided by 2/5. Whenever you divide, you flip the 2nd fraction upside down... known as the reciprocal. And after that you multiply the first number by the upside down 2nd number.

So now you have 7/4 X 5/2. When multiplying, just multiply the numerators across and the denominators across. As your answer, you get 35/8 or 4 3/8.

Step-by-step explanation:

hey! so 1 (25) out of 4 (100) is 25 so your answer is 25%. it's like quarters!

{x = -1/2 ,   y = -1

step-by-step explanation:

solve the following system:

{2 x + y = -2

{10 x - 3 y = -2

in the first equation, look to solve for y:

{2 x + y = -2

{10 x - 3 y = -2

subtract 2 x from both sides:

{y = -2 x - 2

{10 x - 3 y = -2

substitute y = -2 x - 2 into the second equation:

{y = -2 x - 2

{10 x - 3 (-2 x - 2) = -2

10 x - 3 (-2 x - 2) = (6 x + 6) + 10 x = 16 x + 6:

{y = -2 x - 2

{16 x + 6 = -2

in the second equation, look to solve for x:

{y = -2 x - 2

{16 x + 6 = -2

subtract 6 from both sides:

{y = -2 x - 2

{16 x = -8

divide both sides by 16:

{y = -2 x - 2

{x = -1/2

substitute x = -1/2 into the first equation:

{y = -1

{x = -1/2
