What is 43/48 Divided By 5/1

Solving $\frac{43}{48}\div\frac{5}{1}$

• Rewrite the Division as Multiplication by the Reciprocal:

$\frac{43}{48} \div \frac{5}{1} = \frac{43}{48} \times \frac{1}{5}$

• Multiply the Numerators: $43 \times 1 = 43$
• Multiply the Denominators: $48 \times 5 = 240$
• Form the New Fraction: $\frac{43}{48} \times \frac{5}{1} = \frac{43}{240}$
