Question

A bowl holds Fraction 3 over 10 cup of oil when it is Fraction 2 over 5 full. Which statement best describes the quotient of 3 over 10 division sign2 over 5?

Answer 1

ohhhh. 3/10 divided by 2/5 Multiply and flip 3/10 times 5/2 15/20 3/4

the answer is 3/4

Answer 2

`(3)/(4)`

Explanation:

We are given that

A bowl holds oil=
`(3)/(10)` cup

When fraction=
`(2)/(5)`

We have to find the quotient of 3 over 10 division sign 2 over 5.

Quotient=
`(3)/(10)/ (2)/(5)`

When a division sign change into multiply then, the term in denominator change into reciprocal .

By this rule

Quotient=
`(3)/(10)* (5)/(2)=(3)/(4)`

Hence, the quotient of 3 over 10 division sign 2 over 5=
`(3)/(4)`
