Answer: 1185÷12\frac{11}{85}\div\frac{1}{2} = 2285\frac{22}{85}

Solving 1185÷12\frac{11}{85}\div\frac{1}{2}

  • Rewrite the Division as Multiplication by the Reciprocal:

1185÷12=1185×21\frac{11}{85} \div \frac{1}{2} = \frac{11}{85} \times \frac{2}{1}

  • Multiply the Numerators: 11×2=2211 \times 2 = 22
  • Multiply the Denominators: 85×1=8585 \times 1 = 85
  • Form the New Fraction: 1185×12=2285\frac{11}{85} \times \frac{1}{2} = \frac{22}{85}

Simplify - Since 2285\frac{22}{85}​ is already in its simplest form (there are no common factors between 2222 and 8585 other than 11), this is the final answer.

Answer 1185÷12=2285\frac{11}{85}\div\frac{1}{2} = \frac{22}{85}
