IF THE PRODUCT OF 2 FRACTIONS EQUAL 2/3 AND ONE FRACTION IS 3/5 WHAT IS THE OTHER FRACTION?

Sagot :

so product means multiplication
so

x times y =2/3

one is 3/5 so
x times 3/5=2/3
x times 3/5=x(3/5)=2/3
x(3/5)=2/3
multiply both sdies by 5/3 to clear fraction
x(15/15)=(2/3)(5/3)
x(1)=(2 times 5)/(3 times 3)
x=10/9
the other number is 10/9 or 1  and 1/9
