2 divided by 1 = 2
The actual answer:
(21/10) / (6/5)
(21/10) * (5/6) = 105/60 = 1 45/60 = 1 4/5
how do you estimate fractions?
I know how to estimate numbers and decimals but the questions wants us to estimate fraction sand have the answer in fraction form.
the question is : 2 1/10 divided by
1 1/5=
how would these be estimated?
without estimating I know the answer is 33/25
can you explain?
thank you

ok I see where I messed up on the actual work. What you did is the actual equation by it asks to estimate before solving. How do you estimate these fractions?
I estimated using the closest whole numbers -- 2 and 1.
