Explain how to divide 3/4 ÷ 3/8 by using reciprocal of 3/8

1 answer:

5 0

The reciprocal of 3/8 would be 8/3 (basically reversing the numbers).

When dividing fractions, you can just multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction instead of dividing by the second fraction.

3/4 ÷ 3/8

= 3/4 × 8/3

Simplifying gives us the final answer:

= 2

X intercept: y = 0
y= -3/4x -4
0 = -3/4 x - 4
4= -3/4 x
4 • -4/3 = x
-5.3 = x
y intercept: x = 0
y = -3/4 x -4
y = -3/4 (0) -4
y = -4
the points are (-5.3, 0) and (0, -4)
