Question

(2) Clare said that 4/3:5/2 is 10/3. She reasoned: 4/3.5=20/3 and 20/3:2=10/3.
Explain why Clare's answer and reasoning are incorrect. Find the correct
quotient!

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is 8/15

Step-by-step explanation:

4/3 divided by 5/2 is the same as 4/3 times 2/5

4/3 times 2/5= 8/15

8/15 is the answer

She is wrong because if you want to do it you have to multiply the fraction with 5 and then MULTIPLY it by 2 not divide it by 2.
