Divide 4 3/5 ÷ 2 5/8 and simplify to the lowest terms
1. 1 ¾
2. 1 5/8
3. 2 2/3
4. 3 3/7
1
Rationale 1: Write 4 3/7 as the improper fraction of 23/5 and 2 5/8 as the improper fraction 21/8. Then set up the equation by inverting the second fraction or 23/5 x 8/21 = 184/105. Now reduce the fraction by dividing 105 into 184 or 1 75/100. Reduce the fraction of 75/100 further by 5 until the fraction ¾ is reached. The answer is 1 ¾.
