2 1/5 divided 2 1/4
To divide these two mixed numbers, we need to first convert them to improper fractions:
2 1/5 = 11/5
2 1/4 = 9/4
Now, we can divide by multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second one:
11/5 รท 9/4 = 11/5 x 4/9
We can simplify this fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor, which is 1:
11/5 x 4/9 = (11 x 4) / (5 x 9) = 44/45
Therefore, 2 1/5 divided by 2 1/4 is equal to 44/45.
To divide 2 1/5 by 2 1/4, follow these steps:
1. Convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions:
2 1/5 = (2 * 5 + 1)/5 = 11/5
2 1/4 = (2 * 4 + 1)/4 = 9/4
2. Invert the divisor (the second fraction) by flipping the numerator and denominator:
9/4 becomes 4/9
3. Multiply the dividend (the first fraction) by the inverted divisor:
(11/5) * (4/9) = (11 * 4) / (5 * 9) = 44/45
4. Simplify the fraction if possible:
44/45 is already in simplified form, so this is the final result.
Therefore, 2 1/5 divided by 2 1/4 is equal to 44/45.
