56\mathbf{\frac{5}{6}}

Step-by-step solution

4 steps

to simplify the given expression, we will first simplify the numerator and the denominator separately, then divide the simplified numerator by the simplified denominator.

The expression is:

523÷275613÷276\frac{5\frac{2}{3} \div 2\frac{7}{5}}{6\frac{1}{3} \div 2\frac{7}{6}}
  1. Convert all mixed numbers to improper fractions.

    For the numerator:

    523=(5×3)+23=15+23=1735\frac{2}{3} = \frac{(5 \times 3) + 2}{3} = \frac{15 + 2}{3} = \frac{17}{3} 275=(2×5)+75=10+75=1752\frac{7}{5} = \frac{(2 \times 5) + 7}{5} = \frac{10 + 7}{5} = \frac{17}{5}

    For the denominator:

    613=(6×3)+13=18+13=1936\frac{1}{3} = \frac{(6 \times 3) + 1}{3} = \frac{18 + 1}{3} = \frac{19}{3} 276=(2×6)+76=12+76=1962\frac{7}{6} = \frac{(2 \times 6) + 7}{6} = \frac{12 + 7}{6} = \frac{19}{6}
  2. Simplify the numerator.

    173÷175=173×517\frac{17}{3} \div \frac{17}{5} = \frac{17}{3} \times \frac{5}{17}

    Cancel out the common factor of 17:

    =53= \frac{5}{3}
  3. Simplify the denominator.

    193÷196=193×619\frac{19}{3} \div \frac{19}{6} = \frac{19}{3} \times \frac{6}{19}

    Cancel out the common factor of 19:

    =63=2= \frac{6}{3} = 2
  4. Divide the simplified numerator by the simplified denominator.

    The expression now becomes:

    532\frac{\frac{5}{3}}{2}

    This is equivalent to 53÷2\frac{5}{3} \div 2.

    53÷2=53×12=5×13×2=56\frac{5}{3} \div 2 = \frac{5}{3} \times \frac{1}{2} = \frac{5 \times 1}{3 \times 2} = \frac{5}{6}

    The simplified value is 56\mathbf{\frac{5}{6}}.
