2/3 divided by 12/19

Answer 1

To divide 2/3 by 12/19, you must invert the divisor (12/19) and then multiply it by the dividend (2/3).

(2/3) ÷ (12/19) = (2/3) * (19/12)

Now, multiply the numerators together: 2 * 19 = 38
And multiply the denominators together: 3 * 12 = 36

So, (2/3) ÷ (12/19) = 38/36

Now, simplify the fraction if possible. The greatest common divisor of 38 and 36 is 2.

38/2 = 19
36/2 = 18

Therefore, (2/3) ÷ (12/19) simplifies to 19/18.
