Question

find the quotient simplify your answers a+3 over a divided by 8 over a

Answer 1

ANSWER

$\frac{a + 3}{8}$



EXPLANATION

We want to simplify

$\frac{a + 3}{a} \div \frac{8}{a}$


We multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction to obtain,



$\frac{a + 3}{a} \times \frac{a}{8}$


We cancel the common factors to get,


$\frac{a + 3}{1} \times \frac{1}{8}$

This gives us,

$\frac{a + 3}{8}$
