What is 19/39 Divided By 2/1

Solving $\frac{19}{39}\div\frac{2}{1}$

• Rewrite the Division as Multiplication by the Reciprocal:

$\frac{19}{39} \div \frac{2}{1} = \frac{19}{39} \times \frac{1}{2}$

• Multiply the Numerators: $19 \times 1 = 19$
• Multiply the Denominators: $39 \times 2 = 78$
• Form the New Fraction: $\frac{19}{39} \times \frac{2}{1} = \frac{19}{78}$

Simplify - Since $\frac{19}{78}$​ is already in its simplest form (there are no common factors between $19$ and $78$ other than $1$), this is the final answer.

Answer $\frac{19}{39}\div\frac{2}{1} = \frac{19}{78}$
