Question

7 1/2 divided by 1 1/2 = 5 How to check the answer

Answer 1

We verified that the equation
`7(1)/(2)/1(1)/(2)=5` has both sides equal.

Explanation:

We need to solve and verify:
`7(1)/(2)/1(1)/(2)=5`

Solving:

`7(1)/(2)/1(1)/(2)=5`

Converting into improper fractions

`(15)/(2)/(3)/(2)=5`

Converting division sign into multiplication and reversing 3/2 i.e

`(15)/(2)*(2)/(3)=5`

Now simplifying

`(15)/(3)=5 \\5=5`

So, We verified that the equation
`7(1)/(2)/1(1)/(2)=5` has both sides equal.
