What is 10/12 Divided by 75?
Methods
Breaking down the problem:
First, let’s break down each piece of the problem. We have the fraction, 10/12, which is also the dividend, and the whole number, or the divisor, which is 75:
Numerator of the dividend: 10
Denominator of the dividend: 12
Whole number and divisor: 75
So, what is 10/12 Divided by 75? Let’s work through the problem and find the answer in both fraction and decimal forms.
What is 10/12 Divided by 75, Step-by-step
First let’s set up the problem:
10
12
÷
75
\frac{10}{12} ÷ 75
12 10 ÷ 75
Step 1:
The first step of this solution is to multiple the denominator of the dividend, 12, by the whole number 75:
12 x 75 = 900
Step 2:
The result of this multiplication will now become the denominator of the answer. The answer to the problem in fraction form can now be seen:
900/10 = 90/1
A fraction that has 1 as its denominator is an improper fraction. So, we should simplify this to just the numerator. Since the numerator is a whole number, there is no reason to write the answer in decimal form.
So,
10 divided by 12/75 =
90
