Solving $\frac{76}{17}\div\frac{3}{1}$

• Rewrite the Division as Multiplication by the Reciprocal:

$\frac{76}{17} \div \frac{3}{1} = \frac{76}{17} \times \frac{1}{3}$

• Multiply the Numerators: $76 \times 1 = 76$
• Multiply the Denominators: $17 \times 3 = 51$
• Form the New Fraction: $\frac{76}{17} \times \frac{3}{1} = \frac{76}{51}$
