What is 72/11 Divided By 1/8

Solving $\frac{72}{11}\div\frac{1}{8}$

• Rewrite the Division as Multiplication by the Reciprocal:

$\frac{72}{11} \div \frac{1}{8} = \frac{72}{11} \times \frac{8}{1}$

• Multiply the Numerators: $72 \times 8 = 576$
• Multiply the Denominators: $11 \times 1 = 11$
• Form the New Fraction: $\frac{72}{11} \times \frac{1}{8} = \frac{576}{11}$

Simplify - Since $\frac{576}{11}$​ is already in its simplest form (there are no common factors between $576$ and $11$ other than $1$), this is the final answer.

Answer $\frac{72}{11}\div\frac{1}{8} = \frac{576}{11}$
