What is 20/6 Divided by 70?
Methods
Breaking down the problem:
First, let’s break down each piece of the problem. We have the fraction, 20/6, which is also the dividend, and the whole number, or the divisor, which is 70:
Numerator of the dividend: 20
Denominator of the dividend: 6
Whole number and divisor: 70
So, what is 20/6 Divided by 70? Let’s work through the problem and find the answer in both fraction and decimal forms.
What is 20/6 Divided by 70, Step-by-step
First let’s set up the problem:
20
6
÷
70
\frac{20}{6} ÷ 70
6 20 ÷ 70
Step 1:
The first step of this solution is to multiple the denominator of the dividend, 6, by the whole number 70:
6 x 70 = 420
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:
420/20 = 21/1
A fraction that has 1 as its denominator is an improper fraction. So, we should simplify this to just the numerator. Since the numerator is a whole number, there is no reason to write the answer in decimal form.
So,
20 divided by 6/70 =
21
