What is 33/89 Divided By 2/1

Solving $\frac{33}{89}\div\frac{2}{1}$

• Rewrite the Division as Multiplication by the Reciprocal:

$\frac{33}{89} \div \frac{2}{1} = \frac{33}{89} \times \frac{1}{2}$

• Multiply the Numerators: $33 \times 1 = 33$
• Multiply the Denominators: $89 \times 2 = 178$
• Form the New Fraction: $\frac{33}{89} \times \frac{2}{1} = \frac{33}{178}$
