Find the quotient of 1/2 and 12/7.(1 point)

Answer 1

In order to divide two fractions, you multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.

First, we need to find the reciprocal of 12/7. The reciprocal of a fraction is obtained by swapping the numerator and the denominator. Therefore, the reciprocal of 12/7 is 7/12.

Next, we multiply 1/2 by 7/12:

(1/2) * (7/12) = (1 * 7)/(2 * 12) = 7/24

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