Form and equivalent division problem for
5 / 1/3 by multiplying both the dividend and divisor by 3. Then find the quotient.
IS it 5 / 3/9
Do I finish by mutliplying
5/1 x 9/3(reciprocal)?
5 / 1/3
5 x 3 = 15
1/3 x 3 = 3/3 = 1
15/1
Then find the quotient,
15/1 = 15
IF you did have to divide 5 by 3/9
you would multiple 5 by the reciprocal of 3/9, so
5 / 3/9 = 5 x 9/3 = 45/3
Yes, you were correct IF you had to divide by 3/9.
107.25/ 0.03
i did
15 might be correct
To find an equivalent division problem for 5 divided by 1/3, you need to multiply both the dividend (5) and the divisor (1/3) by the same number.
To do this, you can multiply them both by 3:
(5 * 3) / (1/3 * 3) = 15 / 1
Now, to simplify further, you have 15 divided by 1. The quotient is simply the dividend divided by the divisor:
15 / 1 = 15
So the quotient of 5 divided by 1/3, with both the dividend and divisor multiplied by 3, is 15.
In conclusion, the equivalent division problem is 15 divided by 1 with the same quotient of 15.
