FIND THE QUOTIENT OF 4/6 and 1/2
To find the quotient of two fractions, you need to divide the numerator of the first fraction by the numerator of the second fraction, and divide the denominator of the first fraction by the denominator of the second fraction.
So, the quotient of 4/6 divided by 1/2 is:
(4/6) ÷ (1/2)
To divide fractions, you need to multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.
Reciprocal of 1/2 = 2/1
So, (4/6) ÷ (1/2) = (4/6) × (2/1)
Multiplying the numerators and denominators:
(4 × 2) / (6 × 1) = 8/6
The quotient of 4/6 and 1/2 is 8/6.
bot bot bot wrong yet again
Apologies for the confusion. Let's try again.
To find the quotient of 4/6 and 1/2, we can multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.
The reciprocal of 1/2 is 2/1.
So, 4/6 divided by 1/2 can be written as:
(4/6) * (2/1)
Multiplying the numerators and denominators:
(4 * 2) / (6 * 1) = 8/6
The quotient of 4/6 and 1/2 is 8/6, which can be simplified further by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2.
Dividing 8 by 2 and 6 by 2 gives us:
8/2 = 4 and 6/2 = 3
So, the simplified quotient is 4/3.
still wrong
Apologies for the mistake. Let's try again to find the correct quotient of 4/6 and 1/2.
To divide fractions, we can multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.
Reciprocal of 1/2 is 2/1.
So, (4/6) ÷ (1/2) can be written as:
(4/6) * (2/1)
Multiplying the numerators and denominators:
4 * 2 = 8, and 6 * 1 = 6
Thus, the quotient of 4/6 and 1/2 is 8/6.
Now, let's simplify this fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2.
8 ÷ 2 = 4, and 6 ÷ 2 = 3
Therefore, the simplified quotient is 4/3.
To find the quotient of 4/6 and 1/2, you follow these steps:
Step 1: Invert the second fraction. Flipping the fraction 1/2 gives us 2/1.
Step 2: Multiply the first fraction by the inverted second fraction. Multiply 4/6 by 2/1.
(4/6) * (2/1) = (4 * 2) / (6 * 1) = 8/6
Step 3: Simplify the fraction if possible. The numerator and denominator have a common factor of 2, so we can divide both by 2.
8/6 = (8/2) / (6/2) = 4/3
Therefore, the quotient of 4/6 and 1/2 is 4/3.
To find the quotient of two fractions, we need to divide the numerator of the first fraction by the numerator of the second fraction, and divide the denominator of the first fraction by the denominator of the second fraction.
In this case, the first fraction is 4/6 and the second fraction is 1/2.
Dividing the numerators: 4 ÷ 1 = 4
Dividing the denominators: 6 ÷ 2 = 3
Therefore, the quotient of 4/6 and 1/2 is 4/3.
