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

7318 or 4 118

Practice makes perfect
Before we evaluate the expression, let's first rewrite the expression so that all of the numbers are fractions.
12 16Ă· 3
12* 6+1/6Ă· 3
72+1/6Ă· 3
73/6Ă· 3
73/6Ă·3/1
Recall that dividing fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. 73/6Ă·3/1=73/6*1/3 When multiplying fractions, remember that the product of two fractions is equal to the product of the numerators over the product of the denominators.
73/6*1/3
73* 1/6* 3
73/18
The quotient is 7318. We can also write this fraction as a mixed number.
73/18
72+1/18
72/18+1/18
4+1/18
4 118
