Question

(7/18 - 5/24) :13/16

Answer 1

(7/18 - 5/24) : 13/16 = 2/9

1) 7/18 - 5/24 = 28/72 - 15/72 = 13/72
2) 13/72 : 13/16 = 13/72 * 16/13 = 16/72 = 2/9

Answer 2

To calculate the expression (7/18 - 5/24) ÷ 13/16, follow these steps:

Step 1: Simplify the fractions 7/18 = (7 * 2)/(18 * 2) = 14/36 5/24 = (5 * 3)/(24 * 3) = 15/72

Step 2: Perform the subtraction (14/36 - 15/72) = (28/72 - 15/72) = (28 - 15)/72 = 13/72

Step 3: Perform the division (13/72) ÷ (13/16) = (13/72) * (16/13) = (13 * 16) / (72 * 13) = 16/72

Step 4: Simplify the resulting fraction (if possible) 16/72 = (16 * 1)/(72 * 1) = 16/72 = 2/9

So, the final result of (7/18 - 5/24) ÷ 13/16 is 2/9.
