Question 1 Report

Evaluate $\frac{\frac{3}{8} \div \frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{3}}{\frac{1}{8} \times \frac{2}{3} + \frac{1}{3}}$

$\frac{1}{4}$

$\frac{1}{3}$

$\frac{1}{2}$

Answer Details

$\frac{\frac{3}{8} \div \frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{3}}{\frac{1}{8} \times \frac{2}{3} + \frac{1}{3}}$
= $\frac{\frac{3}{8} \times \frac{2}{1} - \frac{1}{3}}{\frac{1}{8} \times \frac{2}{3} + \frac{1}{3}}$
= $\frac{\frac{6}{8} - \frac{1}{3}}{\frac{2}{24} + \frac{1}{3}}$
= $\frac{\frac{18 - 8}{24}}{\frac{2 + 8}{24}}$ = $\frac{\frac{10}{24}}{\frac{10}{24}}$
= $\frac{10}{24}$ $\div$ $\frac{10}{24}$
= $\frac{10}{24}$ x $\frac{24}{10}$ = 1
