What is \( \frac{2}{7} \) ÷ \( \frac{3}{6} \)?

68% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{1}{12}\)
\(\frac{3}{35}\)
1\(\frac{5}{7}\)
\(\frac{4}{7}\)

Solution

To divide fractions, invert the second fraction and then multiply:

\( \frac{2}{7} \) ÷ \( \frac{3}{6} \) = \( \frac{2}{7} \) x \( \frac{6}{3} \)

To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together and then multiply the denominators together:

\( \frac{2}{7} \) x \( \frac{6}{3} \) = \( \frac{2 x 6}{7 x 3} \) = \( \frac{12}{21} \) = \(\frac{4}{7}\)

Charlie loaned Christine $500 at an annual interest rate of 8%. If no payments are made, what is the total amount owed at the end of the first year?

71% Answer Correctly
$515
$520
$540
$535

Solution

The yearly interest charged on this loan is the annual interest rate multiplied by the amount borrowed:

interest = annual interest rate x loan amount

i = (\( \frac{6}{100} \)) x $500
i = 0.08 x $500

No payments were made so the total amount due is the original amount + the accumulated interest:

total = $500 + $40
total = $540

What is \( \frac{2}{8} \) x \( \frac{3}{5} \)?

72% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{2}{15}\)
\(\frac{2}{7}\)
\(\frac{1}{81}\)
\(\frac{3}{20}\)

Solution

To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together and then multiply the denominators together:

\( \frac{2}{8} \) x \( \frac{3}{5} \) = \( \frac{2 x 3}{8 x 5} \) = \( \frac{6}{40} \) = \(\frac{3}{20}\)
