What is 70/17 Divided By 9/8

Solving $\frac{70}{17}\div\frac{9}{8}$

• Rewrite the Division as Multiplication by the Reciprocal:

$\frac{70}{17} \div \frac{9}{8} = \frac{70}{17} \times \frac{8}{9}$

• Multiply the Numerators: $70 \times 8 = 560$
• Multiply the Denominators: $17 \times 9 = 153$
• Form the New Fraction: $\frac{70}{17} \times \frac{9}{8} = \frac{560}{153}$
