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

9030 or 3

Practice makes perfect
Before we evaluate the expression, let's first rewrite the expression so that all of the numbers are fractions.
3 35 Ă· 1 15
3 * 5+3/5 Ă· 1 * 5+1/5
15+3/5 Ă· 5+1/5
18/5 Ă· 6/5
Recall that dividing fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. 18/5 Ă· 6/5 = 18/5 * 5/6 When multiplying fractions, remember that the product of two fractions is equal to the product of the numerators over the product of the denominators.
18/5 * 5/6
18 * 5/5 * 6
90/30
