Divide.

Question 1.
15 ÷ \(\frac{1}{3}\)

Answer: 45
Explanation:
Dividing fractions is equal to the multiplication of a fraction by the reciprocal of another fraction. A fraction has a numerator and a denominator.
When we divide one fraction by another, we almost multiply the fractions.

\(\frac{15}{1}\) ÷ \(\frac{1}{3}\)

\(\frac{15}{1}\) x \(\frac{3}{1}\)

15 x 3 = 45

Question 2.
24 ÷ \(\frac{1}{6}\)

Answer: 144
Explanation:
Dividing fractions is equal to the multiplication of a fraction by the reciprocal of another fraction. A fraction has a numerator and a denominator.
When we divide one fraction by another, we almost multiply the fractions.

24 ÷ \(\frac{1}{6}\)

24 x 6 = 144

Question 3.
\(\frac{3}{8}\) ÷ \(\frac{3}{4}\)

Answer:
\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Explanation:
Dividing fractions is equal to the multiplication of a fraction by the reciprocal of another fraction. A fraction has a numerator and a denominator.
When we divide one fraction by another, we almost multiply the fractions.

\(\frac{3}{8}\) ÷ \(\frac{3}{4}\)

\(\frac{3}{8}\) x \(\frac{4}{3}\)

\(\frac{12}{24}\) = \(\frac{1}{2}\)

Question 23.
In January, Jane volunteered at a hospital for a total of 12 hours. She spent \(\frac{4}{5}\) hour at the hospital every time she volunteered. How many times did Jane volunteer in January?
Answer:
15 times
Explanation:
In January, Jane volunteered at a hospital for a total of 12 hours.
She spent \(\frac{4}{5}\) hour at the hospital every time she volunteered.
Number times Jane volunteer in January
\(\frac{12}{1}\) ÷ \(\frac{4}{5}\)

\(\frac{12}{1}\) x \(\frac{5}{4}\)
3 x 5 = 15

Question 24.
Paul is making loaves of raisin bread to sell at a fundraising event. The recipe calls for \(\frac{1}{3}\) cup of raisins for each loaf, and Paul has 3\(\frac{1}{4}\) cups of raisins.
a) How many loaves can Paul make?
Answer:
Paul can make 9 loaves.
Explanation:
Paul has 3\(\frac{1}{4}\) cups of raisins.

The recipe calls for \(\frac{1}{3}\) cup of raisins for each loaf,

Number of loaves can Paul make are

\(\frac{13}{4}\) ÷ \(\frac{1}{3}\)

\(\frac{13}{4}\) x \(\frac{3}{1}\)

39 ÷ 4 = 9\(\frac{3}{4}\)

b) How many cups of raisins will he have left over?
Answer:
\(\frac{3}{4}\)

Explanation:
Paul has 3\(\frac{1}{4}\) cups of raisins.

The recipe calls for \(\frac{1}{3}\) cup of raisins for each loaf,
Number of loaves can Paul make are

\(\frac{13}{4}\) ÷ \(\frac{1}{3}\)

\(\frac{13}{4}\) x \(\frac{3}{1}\)

39 ÷ 4 = 9\(\frac{3}{4}\)

Number of loaves left over are \(\frac{3}{4}\)

Question 26.
Mervin had some cartons of milk. He sold \(\frac{2}{5}\) of the cartons of milk in the morning. He then sold \(\frac{3}{4}\) of the remainder in the afternoon. 24 more cartons of milk were sold in the afternoon than in the morning. How many cartons of milk did Mervin have at first?
Answer:
480 cartons of milk.
Explanation:
total 5 parts
each part can be sub divided in to 4 parts each
in each  box 24 cartons of milk
if total boxes are 20 and each box contains 24 cartons of milk
then the total number of milk is 24 x 20 = 480

Question 28.
At a concert, \(\frac{2}{5}\) of the people were men. There were 3 times as many women as children. If there were 45 more men than children, how many people were there at the concert?
Answer:
180 people
Explanation:
Let people= p
men = \(\frac{2}{5}\)p
Let children = c
women = 3c
men = \(\frac{2}{5}\)p = c+45
people = men + women + children
= \(\frac{2}{5}\)p + 3c + c

= \(\frac{2}{5}\)p + 4c

= \(\frac{3}{5}\)p = 4c
\(\frac{2}{5}\)p = c + 45
Children = 27
people = 180
So, 180 people at the show.
women = 3c = 3 x 27 = 81
men = \(\frac{2}{5}\)p = c+45
= 72

Question 29.
\(\frac{3}{4}\) of the students in a school were girls and the rest were boys. \(\frac{2}{3}\) of the girls and \(\frac{1}{2}\) of the boys attended the school carnival. Find the total number of students in the school if 330 students did not attend the carnival.
Answer:
Total number of students 880
Explanation:
girls = 3boys,
since \(\frac{3}{4}\) = 3 x \(\frac{1}{4}\)

\(\frac{2}{3}\) girls + \(\frac{1}{2}\) boys attended

\(\frac{2}{3}\) x 3boys + \(\frac{1}{2}\) boys

= \(\frac{5}{2}\) boys attended

subtract that from the total (boys + girls) students:
boys + girls – \(\frac{5}{2}\) boys = 330

4b – \(\frac{5}{2}\) boys = 330

\(\frac{3}{2}\) boys = 330
boys = 220
so, girls = 3b
= 220 x 3 = 660
Boys + Girls = (220 + 660) = 880
There are 880 students
660 girls and 220 boys
440 girls and 110 boys attended = 550
the remaining 330 did not attend.

Question 30.
At a baseball game, there were three times as many males as females. \(\frac{5}{6}\) of the males were boys and the rest were men. \(\frac{2}{3}\) of the females were girls and the rest were women. Given that there were 121 more boys than girls, how many adults were there at the baseball game?
Answer:
55 adults
Explanation:
Number of females x
Number of girls = \(\frac{2}{3}\) x – girls

Number of women = \(\frac{1}{3}\) x

Number of males = 3x

Number of boys = \(\frac{5}{6}\) x 3x

= \(\frac{5}{2}\) x – boys

Number of men = \(\frac{1}{6}\) x 3x

= \(\frac{1}{2}\) x – men
So, \(\frac{5}{2}\) – 121 = \(\frac{2}{3}\) x

\(\frac{15}{6}\)x – \(\frac{4}{6}\)x = 121

\(\frac{11}{6}\)x = 121
x = 66
Men = \(\frac{1}{2}\) x 66 = 33

Women = \(\frac{1}{3}\) x 66 = 22
Adults = Men + Women
Adults = 33 + 22 = 55
Question 31.
Mr. Thomas spent $1,600 of his savings on a television set and \(\frac{2}{5}\) of the remainder on a refrigerator. He had \(\frac{1}{3}\) of his original amount of savings left.
a) What was Mr. Thomas’s original savings?
Answer:
$3600
b) What was the cost of the refrigerator?
Answer:
$2400
Explanation:
Let $\mathrm{x\; is\; the\; savings,}$x−(1600+(2x− \(\frac{1600}{5}\)) = x3
Because x is total amount of savings and he spent $1600
So, now he has $2÷5$ of the total amount – $1600
($x÷3$ Because he has $1÷3$ of his original amount of savings)
$x+(-1600-\frac{2x-\; \backslash (\backslash frac\{3200\}\{5\}\backslash )}{})$ = $\frac{x}{3}$3x+3(−1600+−2x+ \(\frac{3200}{5}\))=x
3x+(−4800+−6x+ \(\frac{9600}{5}\))=x
3x+(−4800−1.2x+1920)=x
2x=4800+1.2x−1920.
8x=2880
x=3600
