what is the answer to 4 and 2/9 divided by 4 and 2/3?

Question

WHAT IS THE ANSWER TO FOUR AND TWO NINTHS DIVIDED BY FOUR AND TWO THIRDS.
thanks for help.

Answer 1

4 2/9/4 2/3=
38/9*3/14=19/21

Answer 2

4 2/9 divided by 4 2/3
first convert improper fractions. 4 2/9 is 38/9 and 4 2/3 is 14/3.
then 38/9 divided by 14/3 becomes 38/9 multiplied by 3/ 14. (you invert the fraction you are dividing by then multiply) the answer is 19/21

Answer 3

In order to solve this you must first convert the mixed fractions into fractions.

4 2/9 becomes 38/9 by multiply 4 X 9 and adding 2.
4 2/3 becomes 14/3 by multiply 4 X 3 and adding 2.

In order to divided the two you must multiply by the reciprocal, this means multiply 38/9 (4 2/9) by the opposite of 14/3 (4 2/3) which is 3/14.

38/9 x 3/14 = 38/42 or approx. 0.9.

Answer 4

You can do it two ways

1) Reduce the fractions to decimals and divide; or
2) Find a common denominator (9) and divide 38/9ths by 42/9ths or 38/42 .. which is 19/21 ....

the answer (either way) will be .9

Answer 5

First, convert them into improper fractions. That gives

(38/9)/(14/3)

Now for the confusing part, you invert (flip) the SECOND fraction and then multiply the fractions together. This is done as one single step. That gives

(38/9)*(3/14)

Note that an * means multiplication.

Now perform the multiplication and reduce your answer. If you know cancellation, perform it before you multiply.

Hope this helped
