What is 39/11 Divided By 5/2

Solving $\frac{39}{11}\div\frac{5}{2}$

• Rewrite the Division as Multiplication by the Reciprocal:

$\frac{39}{11} \div \frac{5}{2} = \frac{39}{11} \times \frac{2}{5}$

• Multiply the Numerators: $39 \times 2 = 78$
• Multiply the Denominators: $11 \times 5 = 55$
• Form the New Fraction: $\frac{39}{11} \times \frac{5}{2} = \frac{78}{55}$

Simplify - Since $\frac{78}{55}$​ is already in its simplest form (there are no common factors between $78$ and $55$ other than $1$), this is the final answer.

Answer $\frac{39}{11}\div\frac{5}{2} = \frac{78}{55}$
