Exercise 18 Page 331

Let's find the quotient for the given division. 6 35 ÷ 2 34 We will start by rewriting the mixed numbers as improper fractions.

Recall that dividing fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. 33/5 ÷ 11/4 = 33/5 * 4/11 Next, we multiply the numerators and the denominators.

Now, let's check our answer. To do so, we will multiply the quotient, 2 25, by the divisor, 2 34.

As we can see, the result is the dividend. So, we know our answer is correct.
