What is 50/70 Divided By 4/2

Solving $\frac{50}{70}\div\frac{4}{2}$

• Rewrite the Division as Multiplication by the Reciprocal:

$\frac{50}{70} \div \frac{4}{2} = \frac{50}{70} \times \frac{2}{4}$

• Multiply the Numerators: $50 \times 2 = 100$
• Multiply the Denominators: $70 \times 4 = 280$
• Form the New Fraction: $\frac{50}{70} \times \frac{4}{2} = \frac{100}{280}$

Let's Simplify $\frac{100}{280}$

• Find the Greatest Common Divisor (GCD) of $100$ and $280$. The GCD of $100$ and $280$ is $20$.
• Divide both the numerator and the denominator by the GCD:$\frac{100 \div 20}{280 \div 20} = \frac{5}{14}$

Answer $\frac{50}{70}\div\frac{4}{2} = \frac{5}{14}$
