Question 1 (26)
1.1. Solve and explain each step to grade 6 mathematics learners the
following
multiplication and division calculations involving fractions.
1.1.1. 68/4 ÷ 6/12 (6)
To divide 68/4 by 6/12, we can first simplify the fractions by dividing the numerator
and denominator of both fractions by their greatest common divisor.
68/4 = 17/1 (divide both numerator and denominator by 4)
6/12 = 1/2 (divide both numerator and denominator by 6)
Now we have the expression 17/1 ÷ 1/2. To divide fractions, we can multiply by the
reciprocal of the divisor.
