Question

After completing the fraction division 5 divided by 5/3, Miko used the multiplication shown to check her work. 3x5/3=3/1x5/3=15/3 or 5

Answer 1

Answer:

Miko found the correct quotient and checked her work using multiplication correctly

Explanation:

When we divided 5 by 5/3, we get:

$5\div\frac{5}{3}=5\times\frac{3}{5}=\frac{5\times3}{5}=\frac{15}{5}=3$

Therefore, the quotient is 3.

Then, to check the division, we need to multiply the quotient 3 by the divisor 5/3. If we get the dividend 5, the division was correct, so

$3\times\frac{5}{3}=\frac{3}{1}\times\frac{5}{3}=\frac{15}{3}=5$

Therefore, Miko found the correct quotient and checked her work using multiplication correctly.
