Exercise 10 Page 58

Rewrite the expression so that all of the numbers are fractions.

8414 or 6

Practice makes perfect
Before we evaluate the expression, let's first rewrite the expression so that all of the numbers are fractions.
10 12 Ă· 1 34
10 * 2+1/2 Ă· 1 * 4+3/4
20+1/2 Ă· 4+3/4
21/2 Ă· 7/4
Recall that dividing fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. 21/2 Ă· 7/4 = 21/2 * 4/7 When multiplying fractions, remember that the product of two fractions is equal to the product of the numerators over the product of the denominators.
21/2 * 4/7
21 * 4/2 * 7
84/14
