Question

I chop 1 5/6 onions in 2 3/8 minutes. How many onions do I chop in one minute?

Answer 1

Hey there!

$\rightarrow \boxed {\sf\{1 \frac{5}{6}} \: = 1.83$

$\rightarrow \boxed {\sf{2 \frac{3}{8}}} \: = 2.375$

Divide 1.83 by 2.375

$\rightarrow \boxed{ \sf \{1.83 \div 2.375}$

$\rightarrow \: 0.770526315789473 \\ \approx \: 0.77$

Multiply 0.77 by 1

⇒ 0.77 × 1

⇒ 0.77

Convert into fraction

$\rightarrow \: 0.77 = \frac{77}{100} \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \\\ \: \rightarrow \frac{0.77}{1} \times \frac{100}{100} \ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \:$

$\rightarrow \: = \frac{77}{100}$
