Division of Fractional Number by Another Fraction Number

Division (Fraction and Whole Number)

Division (Fraction by Fraction )

Under this division, we multiply one fraction number with multiplicative inverse of another fraction number.following examples further elaborates this method. Example 1 : Solve 5 8 ÷ 9 7 Answer = The solution is as follows- multiplicative inverse of 9 7 is 7 9 Now, multiply the the first fraction with multiplicative inverse and we get = 5 8 x 7 9 Divide; multiplication of numerators by multiplication of denominators and we get; 5 x 7 8 x 9 = 35 72 Example 2 : Solve 25 5 ÷ 3 4 Answer = The solution is as follows - multiplicative inverse of 3 4 is 4 3 Now, multiply the the first fraction with multiplicative inverse and we get = 25 5 x 4 3 Divide; multiplication of numerators by multiplication of denominators and we get; = 25 x 4 5 x 3 = 100 15 Example 3 = Solve 9 10 ÷ 6 7 Answer = The solution is as follows - multiplicative inverse of 6 7 is 7 6 Now, multiply the the first fraction with multiplicative inverse and we get = 9 10 x 7 6 Divide; multiplication of numerators by multiplication of denominators and we get; = 9 x 7 10 x 6 = 63 60
