Question

Using 7 1/2 / 3/4 = 60/6=10 interpret the meaning of the quotient in terms of the two fractions given

Answer 1

Answer:

Here's what I get.

Step-by-step explanation:

$x = 7\frac{1}{2} \div \frac{3}{4}$

1. Convert the mixed number to an improper fraction

$x = \dfrac{15}{2} \div \dfrac{3}{4}$

2. Invert the proper fraction and change division to multiplication

$x = \dfrac{15}{2} \times \dfrac{4}{3}$

3. Multiply numerators and denominators

$x = \dfrac{60}{6}$

4. Divide the numerator and the denominator

$x = 10$

The quotient is what you get after you invert the denominator in Step 2 and then multiply the two fractions in Step 3.

Answer 2

Here I'm assuming 7 1/2 / 3/4 is  $7\frac{1}{2} / \frac{3}{4}$

So let's solve, this first convert the mixed fraction into an improper fraction that is its ideal form to solve an equation

$7\frac{1}{2} = \frac{15}{2}$

therefore,

= $\frac{15}{2} /\frac{3}{4}$

= $\frac{15}{2} * \frac{4}{3}$

= 5 * 2

= 10

What is a mixed fraction?

A mixed fraction is a combination of a whole number and proper fraction.

What are improper fractions and proper fractions?

Improper fractions and proper fractions are the types of fraction numbers (A fraction number which is written in the form of a/b i.e., " $\frac{a}{b}$ " in which a is called as numerator and b is denominator). A fraction is called improper fraction when its numerator is greater than its denominator and for proper fraction, it's vice versa.
