Question

15/124 times 230/30 divided by 230/124

Answer 1

Let's write this out to begin with:


`(15)/(124) * (230)/(30) / (230)/(124)`

Knowing PEMDAS, we know to multiply first:


`(15 * 230)/(124 * 30) / (230)/(124)`

`(3450)/(3720) / (230)/(124)`

Now, remember that when you divide by a fraction, we must flip the fraction and multiply so instead of this:


`(3450)/(3720) / (230)/(124)`

Our equation will look like this:


`(3450)/(3720) * (124)/(230)`

`(427800)/(855600)`

Which simplifies down to:


`(1)/(2)`
