Step-by-step solution

3 steps

You are correct. My apologies for the error. Let's re-solve 4. a) with division.

4. a)

  1. Rewrite the division of fractions as multiplication by the reciprocal of the second fraction.

    35÷127=35×712\frac{3}{5} \div \frac{12}{7} = \frac{3}{5} \times \frac{7}{12}
  2. Multiply the numerators and multiply the denominators.

    3×75×12=2160\frac{3 \times 7}{5 \times 12} = \frac{21}{60}
  3. Simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor.

    The greatest common divisor of 21 and 60 is 3.

    21÷360÷3=720\frac{21 \div 3}{60 \div 3} = \frac{7}{20}

    The simplified expression is 720\frac{7}{20}.
