<PRE><B>Question 15312</B>
Change both mixed fractions to improper fractions:
56 1/2:7 2/3
(2*56 +1)/2 : (3*7 +2)/3
113/2 : 23/3


The ratio of two numbers can be written as a division problem:
113/2 divided by 23/3
113/2 * 3/23


Nothing divides out or reduces, so multiply numerators and denominators:
339/46
