3 Holt CA Course 1 4-5 Dividing Fractions and Mixed Numbers NS2.1 Solve problems involving addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of positive fractions and explain why a particular operation was used for a given situation. Also covered: NS2.2, NS2.4 California Standards

4 Holt CA Course 1 4-5 Dividing Fractions and Mixed Numbers Reciprocals can help you divide by fractions. Two numbers are reciprocals or multiplicative inverses if their product is 1. The reciprocal of is 3 because 1313 1313  3 = 1313  3131 = 3333 = 1. Dividing by a number is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal. 6 ÷ 3 = 2 1313 6  = 2 same answer reciprocals

5 Holt CA Course 1 4-5 Dividing Fractions and Mixed Numbers You can use this rule to divide by fractions.

6 Holt CA Course 1 4-5 Dividing Fractions and Mixed Numbers Vocabulary reciprocal multiplicative inverse

7 Holt CA Course 1 4-5 Dividing Fractions and Mixed Numbers Additional Example 1: Dividing Fractions Divide. Write each answer in simplest form. A. 3737 ÷ 2525 3737 ÷ 2525 = 3737 · 5252 = 3737 · 5 · 2 = 15 14 or 1 14 1 Multiply by the reciprocal of. 2525 B. 3838 ÷ 12 3838 ÷ = 3838 · 1 = 3838 · 1 1 4 = Multiply by the reciprocal of 12. 1 32 Simplify.

8 Holt CA Course 1 4-5 Dividing Fractions and Mixed Numbers Divide. Write each answer in simplest form. A.5 2323 ÷ 1 1414 5 2323 ÷ 1 1414 = 17 3 ÷ 5454 = 17 3 · 4545 = 68 15 or 4 8 15 Write mixed numbers as improper fractions. Multiply by the reciprocal of 5454 B. 3434 ÷ 2 1212 3434 ÷ 2 1212 = 3434 ÷ 5252 = 3 4 · 2525 = 3 · 2 4·5 1 2 = 3 10 Write 2 as an improper fraction. 1212 Multiply by the reciprocal of. 5252 Simplify.. Additional Example 2: Dividing Mixed Numbers

9 Holt CA Course 1 4-5 Dividing Fractions and Mixed Numbers Additional Example 3: Social Studies Application The life span of a golden dollar coin is 30 years, while paper currency lasts an average of 1 years. How many 1212 times longer will the golden dollar stay in circulation? 30 ÷ 1 1212 = 30 1 ÷ 3232 Write the number as an improper fraction. = 30 1 · 2323 Multiply by the reciprocal of. 3232 = · Simplify. 30 2 1 3 10 1 = 20 1 or 20 The golden dollar will stay in circulation about 20 times longer than paper currency. ·
