Question

The values of m and n are whole numbers greater than 1. Which is true about the quotient m/n÷1/n? The expression will always equal n. The expression will always equal m. The expression will equal n only when m > n. The expression will equal m only when m > n.

Answer 1

The value of the quotient is always equal to m

Explanation:

The values of m and n are whole numbers greater than 1.

We are given a quotient that is
`((m)/(n) )/((1)/(n))`.

In this we have fractions in both numerator and denominator.

The given quotient will be the same if we multiply the numerator with the inverse of the denominator.

So we multiply the numerator
`(m)/(n)` with the inverse n.

So the quotient will become =
`(m)/(n) * n` = m

Hence the value of the quotient is always equal to m.
