What is 11/85 Divided By 2/1

Solving $\frac{11}{85}\div\frac{2}{1}$

• Rewrite the Division as Multiplication by the Reciprocal:

$\frac{11}{85} \div \frac{2}{1} = \frac{11}{85} \times \frac{1}{2}$

• Multiply the Numerators: $11 \times 1 = 11$
• Multiply the Denominators: $85 \times 2 = 170$
• Form the New Fraction: $\frac{11}{85} \times \frac{2}{1} = \frac{11}{170}$

Simplify - Since $\frac{11}{170}$​ is already in its simplest form (there are no common factors between $11$ and $170$ other than $1$), this is the final answer.

Answer $\frac{11}{85}\div\frac{2}{1} = \frac{11}{170}$
