Answers are:
a) 1/15
b) 18
c) 1/12

a) 2/5 divided by 6
The rule in dividing fractions is to flip the fraction and multiply. Since “6” is 6/1, it becomes 1/6.
2/5 x 1/6 = 1/15

b) 3 1/3 times 5 2/5
Change the fractions into mixed fraction and multiply across.
10/3 x 27/5 = 270/15
Simplify by dividing numerator by denominator
270/15 = 18

c) 1/4 + 1/3 - 1/2
To add and subtract fractions the denominator has to be the same.
The lowest common denominator will be 12.
1/4 = 3/12
1/3 = 4/12
1/2 = 6/12

Now solve
3/12 + 4/12 - 6/12 = 1/12
