Question

Find:
(i) $\frac{2}{5}$ ÷ $\frac{1}{2}$
(ii) $\frac{4}{9}$ ÷ $\frac{2}{3}$
(iii) $\frac{3}{7}$ ÷ $\frac{8}{7}$
(iv) 2$\frac{1}{3}$÷ $\frac{3}{5}$
(v) 3 $\frac{1}{2}$ ÷ $\frac{8}{3}$
(vi) $\frac{2}{5}$ ÷ 1 $\frac{1}{2}$
(vii) 3 $\frac{1}{5}$ ÷ 1 $\frac{2}{3}$
(viii) 2 $\frac{1}{5}$ ÷ 1 $\frac{1}{5}$

Answer 1

(i)$\frac{2}{5}$÷ $\frac{1}{2}$ = $\frac{2}{5}$ × 2 = $\frac{4}{5}$

---

(ii) $\frac{4}{9}$ ÷ $\frac{2}{3}$ = $\frac{4}{9}$ × $\frac{3}{2}$ = $\frac{2}{3}$

---

(iii) $\frac{3}{7}$ ÷ $\frac{8}{7}$ = $\frac{3}{7}$× $\frac{7}{8}$ =$\frac{3}{8}$

---

(iv) 2$\frac{1}{3}$ ÷ $\frac{3}{5}$ = $\frac{7}{3}$ ÷ $\frac{3}{5}$ = $\frac{7}{3}$ ×$\frac{5}{3}$ = $\frac{35}{9}$

---

(v) 3 $\frac{1}{2}$ ÷ $\frac{8}{3}$ = $\frac{7}{2}$ ÷ $\frac{8}{3}$ = $\frac{7}{2}$ × $\frac{3}{8}$ = $\frac{21}{16}$

---

(vi) $\frac{2}{5}$ ÷ 1$\frac{1}{2}$= $\frac{2}{5}$ ÷ $\frac{3}{2}$ = $\frac{2}{5}$ × $\frac{2}{3}$ = $\frac{4}{15}$

---

(vii) 3 $\frac{1}{5}$ ÷ 1 $\frac{2}{3}$ = $\frac{16}{5}$ ÷ $\frac{5}{3}$ = $\frac{16}{5}$ × $\frac{3}{5}$ = $\frac{48}{25}$

---

(viii) 2$\frac{1}{5}$ ÷ 1$\frac{1}{5}$ = $\frac{11}{5}$ ÷ $\frac{6}{5}$ = $\frac{11}{5}$ × $\frac{5}{6}$ = $\frac{11}{6}$
