A container at a juicing plant holds 4 2/3 tons of oranges. The plant can juice 1 2/3 tons of oranges per day. At this rate, how long will it take to empty the container?

Question

Would I need to multiply 4 2/3 x 1 2/3 to figure out my answer?

Nope, divide time=orangesinplant/rate=(4 2/3)/(1 2/3) 0r 1(4/3)/(5/3) Did you know dividing fractions is the same as multiplying inverses? same thing as (4/3)*(3/5)=...days

What do you mean by dividing fractions is the same as multiplying inverses? What does inverses mean? I have never heard of this term in math. Did you mean to put 14/3 divided by 5/3?

Ms. Sue · Answer

(14/3) / (5/3) = (14/3) * (3/5) 3/5 is the inverse of 5/3
