What is 12/11 Divided By 1/6

Solving $\frac{12}{11}\div\frac{1}{6}$

• Rewrite the Division as Multiplication by the Reciprocal:

$\frac{12}{11} \div \frac{1}{6} = \frac{12}{11} \times \frac{6}{1}$

• Multiply the Numerators: $12 \times 6 = 72$
• Multiply the Denominators: $11 \times 1 = 11$
• Form the New Fraction: $\frac{12}{11} \times \frac{1}{6} = \frac{72}{11}$

Simplify - Since $\frac{72}{11}$​ is already in its simplest form (there are no common factors between $72$ and $11$ other than $1$), this is the final answer.

Answer $\frac{12}{11}\div\frac{1}{6} = \frac{72}{11}$
