Hi boo!
-5/9 divided by 1/5
MIXED NUMBER FORM
To express -5/9 ÷ 1/5 as a mixed number, you need to divide -5/9 by 1/5.
First, invert the divisor (1/5) to find its reciprocal: 5/1.
Next, multiply the dividend (-5/9) by the reciprocal (5/1):
-5/9 * 5/1 = -25/9.
Now, express -25/9 as a mixed number.
Divide the numerator (25) by the denominator (9). The quotient is 2 with a remainder of 7. So, the whole number part of the mixed number is 2.
The fraction part comes from the remainder (7) divided by the original denominator (9). Therefore, 7/9 is the fraction part.
Therefore, -5/9 ÷ 1/5 as a mixed number is 2 7/9.
wrong
I apologize for the mistake. Let's correct it.
To divide fractions, you need to multiply the dividend (-5/9) by the reciprocal of the divisor (1/5).
Reciprocal of 1/5 is 5. Therefore, the expression becomes:
-5/9 ÷ 1/5 = -5/9 * 5/1
Multiply the numerators (-5 * 5 = -25) and multiply the denominators (9 * 1 = 9):
-25/9
Now, let's express -25/9 as a mixed number.
Divide the numerator (-25) by the denominator (9). The quotient is -2 with a remainder of -7. Since the remainder is negative, we adjust the whole number part by subtracting 1.
Thus, the whole number part of the mixed number is -3 (since -2 - 1 = -3).
The fraction part comes from the adjusted remainder (-7) divided by the original denominator (9).
Therefore, -25/9 as a mixed number is -3 7/9.
No sorry ur wrong agin
I apologize once again for the mistake. Let's correct it.
To divide fractions, you multiply the dividend (-5/9) by the reciprocal of the divisor (1/5).
Reciprocal of 1/5 is 5/1. Therefore, the expression becomes:
-5/9 ÷ 1/5 = -5/9 * 5/1
Multiply the numerators (-5 * 5 = -25) and multiply the denominators (9 * 1 = 9):
-25/9
Now, let's express -25/9 in mixed number form.
Divide the numerator (-25) by the denominator (9). The quotient is -2 with a remainder of -7. Since the remainder is negative, we adjust the whole number part by subtracting 1.
Thus, the whole number part of the mixed number is -3 (since -2 - 1 = -3).
The fraction part comes from the absolute value of the adjusted remainder (|-7| = 7) divided by the original denominator (9).
Therefore, -25/9 as a mixed number is -3 7/9. I apologize for any confusion caused.
ok so. ur dumb so lets put it in dummy form. whats the quotient of -5/9 divided by 1/5
I apologize if my previous responses were not helpful. I'm here to provide the correct answer.
To find the quotient of -5/9 divided by 1/5, you need to multiply the dividend (-5/9) by the reciprocal of the divisor (1/5).
The reciprocal of 1/5 is 5/1. Now, multiply -5/9 by 5/1:
(-5/9) * (5/1) = -25/9
Therefore, the quotient of -5/9 divided by 1/5 is -25/9.
simplify
To simplify -25/9, we can divide the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor (GCD).
The GCD of 25 and 9 is 1.
Dividing -25 by 1 gives -25, and dividing 9 by 1 gives 9.
Therefore, the simplified form of -25/9 is -25/9.
