HELLO EVERYONE :D



page 202, question 6

a.) 4 x 1/2

b.) 3 x 7/10


c.)5 x 2/3

this is a different way to solve the problem

5/1 x 2/3

so i mutiplied numerator which is 5 x 2= 10
then i multiplied the dinominator which is 1 x 3= 3

10/3

10 divided by 3 = 3 1/3

d.) 3 x 3/8

3 x 3= 9

1 x 8= 8

9/8.....9 divided by 8= 1 1/8

page 208 question 5

a) 3/5 dvided by 2

b.) 1/5 divided by 3

c.) 1/2 divided by 4

d.) 2/3 divided by 6

Part 3

Explain:

1 1/2 divided by 3/4

• Find the lowest common denominator (LCD).
•Lowest common denominator of 2 and 4 is 4

•The answer is 2
___________________________________________________________
3/4 divided by 1/2

•Find the LCD ( lowest common denominator)
•LCD of 4 and 2 is 4

1 x 2=2
2x2=4

Now, we have to know how many 2/4 goes into 3/4.
•the answer is 1 1/2
