how to solve 1/3 / 7/9

Asked by noelmarj21

Answer (1)

Answer:3/7Step-by-step explanation:(1/3)/(7/9)[(1/3)/(7/9)]*[(9/7)/(9/7)]    Note:  [(9/7)/(9/7)] = 1.  We can multiply this times anything we want.  But note what happens to the denominator.  Since (9/7) is the inverse of (7/9), the two terms cancel:              (7/9)*(9/7) = 1[(1/3)/(7/9)]*[(9/7)/(9/7)][(1/3)*(9/7)/(7/9)*(9/7)][(1/3)*(9/7)/(1)](1/3)*(9/7) = 9/21 or 3/7 when simplified
