To divide fractions, we can multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.

The reciprocal of a fraction is obtained by swapping the numerator and denominator.

So, the reciprocal of 12/7 is 7/12.

Multiplying 1/2 by 7/12, we get:
(1/2) * (7/12) = (1*7)/(2*12) = 7/24

Therefore, the quotient of 1/2 and 12/7 is 7/24.

To divide fractions, we can multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.

The reciprocal of a fraction is obtained by swapping the numerator and denominator.

So, the reciprocal of 6/7 is 7/6.

Multiplying 5/6 by 7/6, we get: (5/6) * (7/6) = (5 * 7) / (6 * 6) = 35/36

Therefore, the result of 5/6 ÷ 6/7 is 35/36.

To divide fractions, we can multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.

The reciprocal of a fraction is obtained by swapping the numerator and denominator.

So, the reciprocal of 12/19 is 19/12.

Multiplying 2/3 by 19/12, we get:
(2/3) * (19/12) = (2 * 19) / (3 * 12) = 38/36

To simplify this fraction, we can divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2.

Dividing 38/2 and 36/2, we get: (38/2) / (36/2) = 19/18

Therefore, the result of 2/3 ÷ 12/19 is 19/18.

Based on the recipe, Desiree needs 1/4 cup of lime juice for every 4 avocados.

If she plans to use 1 cup of lime juice, we can set up a proportion to determine the number of avocados she needs.

Let x be the number of avocados Desiree needs.

Using a proportion, we have:

(1/4 cup lime juice)/(4 avocados) = (1 cup lime juice)/x avocados

Cross-multiplying, we get:

(1/4) * x = (1 * 4)

x/4 = 4

Multiplying both sides of the equation by 4, we find:

x = 16

Therefore, Desiree needs 16 avocados for 1 cup of lime juice.

We can set up a proportion to find out how long it will take Rubio to get to his friend's house.

Since Rubio can walk at a pace of 2/3 mile in 16 minutes, we can write the proportion as:

(2/3 mile) / (16 minutes) = (1 mile) / (x minutes)

Cross-multiplying, we get:

(2/3) * x = 1 * 16

2x/3 = 16

Multiplying both sides of the equation by 3/2, we find:

x = 16 * 3/2

x = 24 minutes

Therefore, it will take Rubio 24 minutes to get to his friend's house at this rate.

To divide fractions, we can multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.

The reciprocal of a fraction is obtained by swapping the numerator and denominator.

So, the reciprocal of 2/3 is 3/2.

Multiplying 9/10 by 3/2, we get:
(9/10) * (3/2) = (9 * 3) / (10 * 2) = 27/20

Therefore, the quotient of 9/10 and 2/3 is 27/20.

To divide fractions, we can multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.

The reciprocal of a fraction is obtained by swapping the numerator and denominator.

So, the reciprocal of 1/3 is 3/1.

Multiplying 3/10 by 3/1, we get:
(3/10) * (3/1) = (3 * 3) / (10 * 1) = 9/10

Therefore, the quotient of 3/10 and 1/3 is 9/10.

Since Stacy can paint 3/4 of the bedroom in 3 hours, we need to find out how long it will take her to paint 1 whole bedroom.

To find this, we can set up a proportion:

(3/4 bedroom) / (3 hours) = (1 bedroom) / (x hours)

Cross-multiplying, we get:

(3/4) * x = 1 * 3

3x/4 = 3

Multiplying both sides of the equation by 4/3, we find:

x = 3 * 4/3

x = 4 hours

Therefore, it will take Stacy 4 hours to paint the entire room at this rate.

If Miguel has driven 2/3 of the total distance in 4 hours, we need to find out how long the total drive will take.

To find this, we can set up a proportion:

(2/3 distance) / (4 hours) = (1 distance) / (x hours)

Cross-multiplying, we get:

(2/3) * x = 1 * 4

2x/3 = 4

Multiplying both sides of the equation by 3/2, we find:

x = 4 * 3/2

x = 6 hours

Therefore, it will take Miguel 6 hours to reach his destination at this rate.
