Please help. ASAP. Work out, giving your answer in its simplest form: 3 1/2 divided by 2 3/5

26/35

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First to divide the 3 1/2 by 2 3/5 you have to turn them both into improper fractions

First take 3 1/2. You have to multiply the whole number (3) by the denominator (2) and you would get 6. Then you would add then you add the product (6) to the numerator (1) and get 7.

You keep the denominator the same so the improper fraction is 7/2

Do the same thing to 2 3/5 and the improper fraction is 13/5

2. Now we can divide 13/5 by 7/2 using "keep, change, flip"

Keep: 13/5

Change: division to multiplcation

Flip: 7/2 to make 2/7

Your new equation is 13/5 × 2/7. Multiplcation is easy so you just have to multiply staight across: 13 × 2 and 5 × 7 giving you 26/35

If you divide 35 by 26 you will get 1.34 and a bunch of other numbers but I usually stop at two decimal places

hope this helps :)
