What is 61/42 Divided By 6/1

Solving $\frac{61}{42}\div\frac{6}{1}$

• Rewrite the Division as Multiplication by the Reciprocal:

$\frac{61}{42} \div \frac{6}{1} = \frac{61}{42} \times \frac{1}{6}$

• Multiply the Numerators: $61 \times 1 = 61$
• Multiply the Denominators: $42 \times 6 = 252$
• Form the New Fraction: $\frac{61}{42} \times \frac{6}{1} = \frac{61}{252}$
