Question

Find each product or quotient.

$\frac{4}{3}÷\frac{7}{6}$

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

The required quotient is $\frac{8}{7}$.

Step 1. Rewrite the given expression.

In order to divide a fraction with fraction simply turn the second fraction upside down and change the symbol division by multiplication.

$\frac{4}{3}÷\frac{7}{6}=\frac{4}{3}\times \frac{6}{7}$

Step 2. Cancel out the common factors from the numerator and denominator.

$\frac{4}{3}\times \frac{6}{7}=\frac{4}{1}\times \frac{2}{7}$

Step 3. Simplify the fraction.

$\frac{4}{1}\times \frac{2}{7}=\frac{8}{7}$
