Example Question #290 : Isee Lower Level (Grades 5 6) Mathematics Achievement

What is the value of the expression below?

$\frac{6}{11}\div\frac{2}{7}$

Possible Answers:

$\frac{11}{21}$

$\frac{1}{2}$

$\frac{21}{11}$

$\frac{6}{5}$

Correct answer:

$\frac{21}{11}$

Explanation:

In order to solve $\frac{6}{11}\div\frac{2}{7}$ , the second fraction must be inverted and multiplied by the first fraction. This gives us:

$\frac{6}{11}\cdot\frac{7}{2}$

The numerators are multiplied by one another, as are the denominators.

$\frac{42}{22}$

By dividing the numerator and denominator each by , the fraction can be simplified to $\frac{21}{11}$ , which is the correct answer.

Example Question #41 : How To Divide

What is the value of the expression below?

$\frac{2}{7}\div\frac{4}{9}$

Possible Answers:

$\frac{8}{63}$

$\frac{14}{9}$

$\frac{9}{14}$

$\frac{63}{8}$

Correct answer:

$\frac{9}{14}$

Explanation:

In order to solve $\frac{2}{7}\div\frac{4}{9}$ , the second fraction must be inverted and multiplied by the first fraction. This gives us:

$\frac{2}{7}\cdot\frac{9}{4}$

The numerators are multiplied by one another, as are the denominators.

$\frac{18}{28}$

This can be simplified to $\frac{9}{14}$ , which is the correct answer.

Example Question #42 : How To Divide

Which of the following is the best estimate of the expression below?

$21\div82$

Possible Answers:

$\frac{1}{6}$

$\frac{1}{3}$

$\frac{1}{4}$

$\frac{1}{5}$

Correct answer:

$\frac{1}{4}$

Explanation:

The expression $21\div82$ can be rewritten as:

$\frac{21}{82}$

When rounded to the nearest ones place, this gives us:

$\frac{2}{8}$ , which is equal to $\frac{1}{4}$ .

(The decimal equivalent of $\frac{1}{4}$ is 0.25 , while the decimal equivalent of $\frac{21}{82}$ is 0.256 . Thus, $\frac{1}{4}$ is in fact the closest estimate of the expression $21\div82$ amongst the given answer choices.

If Joe is half the age of Tom and Tom is years old, then Joe is years old. In years, Joe will be years old and Tom will be years old.

Therefore, in years, Joe's age divided by Tom's age will be $\frac{7}{11}$ .
