What is 5/6 Divided by 97, Step-by-step
First letβs set up the problem:
5
6
Γ·
97
\frac{5}{6} Γ· 97
6 5 β Γ· 97
Step 1:
Take the whole number, 97, and multiply it by the denominator of the fraction, 6:
6 x 97 = 582
Step 2:
The result of this multiplication will now become the denominator of the answer. The answer to the problem in fraction form can now be seen:
6
