find the quotient of 5/6 and 6/7

Answer 1

To calculate the quotient of two fractions, we multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.

The reciprocal of a fraction is obtained by switching the numerator and the denominator.

So, the reciprocal of 6/7 is 7/6.

Therefore, to find the quotient of 5/6 and 6/7, we multiply 5/6 by 7/6:

(5/6) * (7/6) = (5 * 7) / (6 * 6) = 35/36

Hence, the quotient of 5/6 and 6/7 is 35/36.
