Question 615969
your equation is:
(3+1/4) / 2 = B / (2/3)
you can make an improper fraction out of 3+1/4.
it becomes (13/4)
your equation becomes:
(13/4) / 2 = B / (2/3)
cross multiply to get:
(13/4) * (2/3) = 2 * B
this is equivalent to:
(13*2) / (4*3) = 2 * B
simplify this further to get:
26 / 12 = 2 * B
divide both sides of this equation by 2 to get:
13 / 12 = B
decimal equivalent of 13 / 12 = 1.08333333333 which rounds to 1.08 or 1.083 or whatever detail you want to go out to.
