Which shows the correct way to use the rule “multiply by the reciprocal” for the expression below?
5 divided by 5/1 2 Over 9/2
5 Over 1 EndFraction times StartFraction 9 Over 2 EndFraction = StartFraction 45 Over 2 EndFraction
StartFraction 5 Over 1 EndFraction times StartFraction 2 Over 9 EndFraction = StartFraction 10 Over 9 EndFraction
StartFraction 1 Over 5 EndFraction times StartFraction 9 Over 2 EndFraction = StartFraction 9 Over 10 EndFraction
StartFraction 1 Over 5 EndFraction times StartFraction 2 Over 9 EndFraction = StartFraction 2 Over 45 EndFraction

why not repost, using real fractions, such as 5/2 or 2/3 instead of all those god-awful words?
