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.
