Question

Whats the quotient of 2 1/4 and 5/8

Answer 1

`\bf 2(1)/(4)\implies \cfrac{2\cdot 4+1}{4}\implies \cfrac{9}{4}\\\\ -------------------------------\\\\ \cfrac{9}{4}/ \cfrac{5}{8}\implies \cfrac{9}{4}\cdot \cfrac{8}{5}\implies \cfrac{9\cdot 8}{4\cdot 5}\implies \cfrac{72}{20}\implies \cfrac{18}{5}\implies 3(3)/(5)`
