Bethany Mckinney · Answer 1

The answer is 7/12.

7/6 : 2.

When you divide, you do the reciprocal of the second number (in this case the second number is 2). That means you flip it upside down, so 2 would become 1/2.

7/6 : 1/2.

And then the division sign becomes a multiplication sign.

7/6 x 1/2.

And then you just multiply. You get 7/12.
