What is 11/12 Divided By 3/2

Answer: 1112÷32\frac{11}{12}\div\frac{3}{2} = 1118\frac{11}{18}

Solving 1112÷32\frac{11}{12}\div\frac{3}{2}

  • Rewrite the Division as Multiplication by the Reciprocal:

1112÷32=1112×23\frac{11}{12} \div \frac{3}{2} = \frac{11}{12} \times \frac{2}{3}

  • Multiply the Numerators: 11×2=2211 \times 2 = 22
  • Multiply the Denominators: 12×3=3612 \times 3 = 36
  • Form the New Fraction: 1112×32=2236\frac{11}{12} \times \frac{3}{2} = \frac{22}{36}

Let's Simplify 2236\frac{22}{36}

  • Find the Greatest Common Divisor (GCD) of 2222 and 3636. The GCD of 2222 and 3636 is 22.
  • Divide both the numerator and the denominator by the GCD:22÷236÷2=1118\frac{22 \div 2}{36 \div 2} = \frac{11}{18}

Answer 1112÷32=1118\frac{11}{12}\div\frac{3}{2} = \frac{11}{18}
