2 X2/3 : (8-2) /9
6/2 :6/9 =2/9
Is this right
Can someone help me please
2 x 2/3 :*(8-2) /9
2/1 x3/2:6/2=2/9
Is this right r what
Online, “*” is used to indicate multiplication to avoid confusion with “x” as an unknown.
Don't understand your use of colon.
Do you mean (2*2/3) divided by (8-2)/9?
To divide by a fraction, invert and multiply.
4/3 * 9/6 = 36/18 = 2
I hope this helps.
To check if the expression is correct, let's break it down step by step:
1. First, let's simplify the expression 2 × 2/3:
Multiply the whole numbers: 2 × 2 = 4
Multiply the fractions: 1/3 × 2/3 = 2/9
So, 2 × 2/3 simplifies to 4/9.
2. Next, let's simplify the expression (8 - 2) / 9:
Subtract the numbers inside the parentheses: 8 - 2 = 6
Divide the result by 9: 6/9 simplifies to 2/3.
3. Now, we can rewrite the original expression:
4/9 : 2/3
4. To divide fractions, we need to find the reciprocal of the second fraction and multiply:
4/9 × 3/2
Multiply the numerators: 4 × 3 = 12
Multiply the denominators: 9 × 2 = 18
So, 4/9 : 2/3 simplifies to 12/18.
5. Finally, we can simplify the fraction 12/18 by finding the greatest common divisor (GCD) and dividing both the numerator and denominator by it:
GCD(12, 18) = 6
Divide the numerator and denominator by 6: 12/6 ÷ 18/6 = 2/3
Therefore, the expression simplifies to 2/3.
So, the correct answer is 2/3, not 2/9.
