You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Given:
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "\"3%2F4\" divided by \"4%2F5\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "To divide by a fraction you can invert that divisor and multiply it times the dividend.
\n" ); document.write( "Therefore, this division problem converts to the multiplication of the dividend \"3%2F4\" by
\n" ); document.write( "the inverted divisor which is now \"5%2F4\" ...
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "\"%283%2F4%29+%2A+%285%2F4%29\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Just multiply the terms in the two numerators to get the resulting numerator, and also
\n" ); document.write( "multiply the terms in the two denominators to get the resulting denominator. This makes
\n" ); document.write( "the problem become:
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "\"%283%2A5%29%2F%284%2A4%29+=+15%2F16\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "So the correct answer is B ... \"15%2F16\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
