To divide fractions, we can multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.
Reciprocal of 2/3 = 3/2
So, 1/2 ÷ 2/3 = 1/2 × 3/2.
Simplifying the fraction, we get:
(1 × 3) / (2 × 2) = 3/4.
Therefore, 1/2 divided by 2/3 is equal to 3/4.
Compute 1/2 divided by 2/3 Simplify the answer if possible.

I want you to divide not multiply buy you did your best and that okay
Apologies for the mistake. To divide fractions, we can multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.
1/2 ÷ 2/3 can be rewritten as (1/2) * (3/2).
Multiplying the numerators and denominators, we get:
1 * 3 / 2 * 2 = 3/4.
Therefore, 1/2 divided by 2/3 is equal to 3/4.
1/2 ÷ 2/3 can be rewritten as (1/2) * (3/2).
Multiplying the numerators and denominators, we get:
1 * 3 / 2 * 2 = 3/4.
Therefore, 1/2 divided by 2/3 is equal to 3/4.
you were correct on the first one so I am sorry for making you re do it so next one compute 6/7 divided by 3/5 simplify the answer if possible.
No problem at all! I can certainly help you with that.
To divide fractions, we again multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.
6/7 ÷ 3/5 can be rewritten as (6/7) * (5/3).
Multiplying the numerators and denominators, we get:
6 * 5 / 7 * 3 = 30/21.
To simplify the fraction, we can find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of 30 and 21, which is 3. Dividing both the numerator and denominator by 3 gives us:
30/21 = (30 ÷ 3) / (21 ÷ 3) = 10/7.
Therefore, 6/7 divided by 3/5 is equal to 10/7.
To divide fractions, we again multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.
6/7 ÷ 3/5 can be rewritten as (6/7) * (5/3).
Multiplying the numerators and denominators, we get:
6 * 5 / 7 * 3 = 30/21.
To simplify the fraction, we can find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of 30 and 21, which is 3. Dividing both the numerator and denominator by 3 gives us:
30/21 = (30 ÷ 3) / (21 ÷ 3) = 10/7.
Therefore, 6/7 divided by 3/5 is equal to 10/7.
that is wrong try again
Apologies for the mistake. Let's try again.
To divide fractions, we multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.
6/7 ÷ 3/5 can be rewritten as (6/7) * (5/3).
Multiplying the numerators and denominators, we get:
(6 * 5) / (7 * 3) = 30/21.
Now, let's simplify the fraction by finding the greatest common divisor (GCD) of 30 and 21, which is 3. Dividing both the numerator and denominator by 3 gives us:
(30 ÷ 3) / (21 ÷ 3) = 10/7.
Therefore, 6/7 divided by 3/5 is equal to 10/7.
To divide fractions, we multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.
6/7 ÷ 3/5 can be rewritten as (6/7) * (5/3).
Multiplying the numerators and denominators, we get:
(6 * 5) / (7 * 3) = 30/21.
Now, let's simplify the fraction by finding the greatest common divisor (GCD) of 30 and 21, which is 3. Dividing both the numerator and denominator by 3 gives us:
(30 ÷ 3) / (21 ÷ 3) = 10/7.
Therefore, 6/7 divided by 3/5 is equal to 10/7.
Simplify the answer if possible
Apologies for overlooking that part. Let's simplify the answer further.
The fraction 10/7 cannot be simplified any further because 10 and 7 do not have a common factor other than 1.
Therefore, the simplified form of 6/7 divided by 3/5 is 10/7.
The fraction 10/7 cannot be simplified any further because 10 and 7 do not have a common factor other than 1.
