Every fraction represents a division - the division of the numerator by the denominator. For example:
Likewise, we can represent every division problem as a fraction, where the dividend is the numerator, and the divisor is the denominator. For example:
Express as a fraction.
A division problem may be interpreted as a fraction, where the dividend is the numerator, and the divisor is the denominator.
Therefore, we can represent the given division problem as
$37\div 3=$
a
|
$\dfrac{37}{3}$ |
b
|
$\dfrac{1}{3}$ |
c
|
$\dfrac{3}{37}$ |
d
|
$\dfrac{1}{37}$ |
e
|
$37$ |
$40\div 13=$
a
|
$\dfrac{40}{13}$ |
b
|
$\dfrac{1}{40}$ |
c
|
$3$ |
d
|
$\dfrac{13} {40}$ |
e
|
$\dfrac{1}{13}$ |
What is as an improper fraction?
First, we can represent the given division problem as a fraction:
Then, we can simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by
What is $22\div 8$ as an improper fraction?
a
|
$\dfrac{11}{2}$ |
b
|
$\dfrac{13}{2}$ |
c
|
$\dfrac{11}{4}$ |
d
|
$\dfrac{11}{3}$ |
e
|
$\dfrac{13}{4}$ |
What is $49\div 14$ as an improper fraction?
a
|
$ \dfrac{13}{7}$ |
b
|
$ \dfrac{9}{2}$ |
c
|
$ \dfrac{13}{3}$ |
d
|
$ \dfrac{7}{2}$ |
e
|
$ \dfrac{7}{3}$ |
Express as an equivalent division problem:
A fraction may be interpreted as the division of the numerator by the denominator.
Therefore, we can represent the given fraction as
$\dfrac{2}{7}=$
a
|
$2\div 7$ |
b
|
$7\div 2$ |
c
|
$2-7$ |
d
|
$2\times 7$ |
e
|
$2+7$ |
$\dfrac{43}{7}=$
a
|
$43\div 7$ |
b
|
$43 + 1\div 7$ |
c
|
$1\div (43+ 7)$ |
d
|
$7\div 43$ |
e
|
$(1+43)\div 7$ |
