What is 17/27 Divided By 7/2

Solving $\frac{17}{27}\div\frac{7}{2}$

• Rewrite the Division as Multiplication by the Reciprocal:

$\frac{17}{27} \div \frac{7}{2} = \frac{17}{27} \times \frac{2}{7}$

• Multiply the Numerators: $17 \times 2 = 34$
• Multiply the Denominators: $27 \times 7 = 189$
• Form the New Fraction: $\frac{17}{27} \times \frac{7}{2} = \frac{34}{189}$
