Question

1 half divided by 3 over 4

  1. 2 over 3
  2. 2 over 4
  3. 14 over 15
  4. 10 over 21

hintHint:

The reciprocal of a fraction is a simple way of interchanging the fraction's numerator and denominator.

The correct answer is: 2 over 3


Here, we have to divide the given fractions.
Now, 1/2 ÷ 3/4
= 1/2 × 4/3
= 1 /1 × 2/3
= 2/3
Hence, the correct option is (a).

To remove the sign of division, we take the reciprocal of the second fraction and multiply the fraction (1/2) by the reciprocal of the second fraction.
