Question

Which of the following is equivalent to x+1/y divided by g+1/h

A) x/y times h/g
B) x + 1/y times h/g+1
C) x+ 1/y divided h/g+1
D) y/x+1 divided g+1/h

Answer 1

B) x + 1/y times h/g+1

Explanation:

We need to divide
`(x+1)/(y)` by
`(g+1)/(h)` then match with given choices to find the correct equivalent result.

where given choices are:

A) x/y times h/g

B) x + 1/y times h/g+1

C) x+ 1/y divided h/g+1

D) y/x+1 divided g+1/h

So let's divide
`(x+1)/(y)` by
`(g+1)/(h)`

`(\left((x+1)/(y)\right))/(\left((g+1)/(h)\right))`

we are allowed to flip the bottom fraction and change division sign into multiplication. So we get:

`=\left((x+1)/(y)\right)\cdot\left((h)/(g+1)\right)`

Hence correct choice is: B) x + 1/y times h/g+1
