3/8 / 6 in the simplest form

Answer 1

To divide \( \frac{3}{8} \) by \( 6 \), you can rewrite the division as follows:

\[ \frac{3}{8} \div 6 = \frac{3}{8} \times \frac{1}{6} \]

Now, multiply the fractions:

\[ \frac{3 \times 1}{8 \times 6} = \frac{3}{48} \]

Next, we simplify \( \frac{3}{48} \) by finding the greatest common divisor (GCD) of \( 3 \) and \( 48 \), which is \( 3 \):

\[ \frac{3 \div 3}{48 \div 3} = \frac{1}{16} \]

Thus, \( \frac{3}{8} \div 6 \) in simplest form is:

\[ \frac{1}{16} \]
