Understanding Division of Fractions: Understand the operation of division between two fractions.To divide one fraction by another, we multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. The reciprocal of a fraction is obtained by swapping its numerator and denominator.
Finding the Reciprocal: Find the reciprocal of the second fraction.The reciprocal of (91) is (19), because we swap the numerator and denominator.
Multiplying the Fractions: Multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.Now we perform the multiplication: (53)×(19).
Performing the Numerical Multiplication: Perform the multiplication of the numerators and denominators.Multiply the numerators: 3×9=27.Multiply the denominators: 5×1=5.So, (53)×(19)=527.
Simplifying the Result: Simplify the result, if necessary.The fraction (27)/(5) is already in its simplest form, so no further simplification is needed.
