Question

Perform the indicated operation. 1/3 divided by 3/8

Answer 1

8/9

Explanation:

Divide

1/3 ÷ 3/8

=

1/3 × 8/3

= ( 1 × 8 ) over ( 3 × 3 )

=
`(1*8)/(3*3)`

= 8/9

To divide fractions, turn the second one upside down (the numerator becomes the denominator and the denominator becomes the numerator), then multiply the numerators and denominators.

Hope this helps!
