What is 14/15 Divided by 70?
Methods
Breaking down the problem:
First, let’s break down each piece of the problem. We have the fraction, 14/15, which is also the dividend, and the whole number, or the divisor, which is 70:
Numerator of the dividend: 14
Denominator of the dividend: 15
Whole number and divisor: 70
So, what is 14/15 Divided by 70? Let’s work through the problem and find the answer in both fraction and decimal forms.
What is 14/15 Divided by 70, Step-by-step
First let’s set up the problem:
14
15
÷
70
\frac{14}{15} ÷ 70
15 14 ÷ 70
Step 1:
The first step of this solution is to multiple the denominator of the dividend, 15, by the whole number 70:
15 x 70 = 1050
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:
1050/14 = 75/1
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,
14 divided by 15/70 =
75
