7 divided by 1\/12 in fraction form simplified<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Correct Answer and Explanation is:<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Correct Answer:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

7\u00f7112=841=847 \\div \\frac{1}{12} = \\frac{84}{1} = 847\u00f7121\u200b=184\u200b=84<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Explanation:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To solve the expression 7 \u00f7 1\/12<\/strong>, we need to understand how division of fractions works. Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The reciprocal of a fraction is what you get when you flip the numerator and denominator<\/strong>. So, the reciprocal of 1\/12<\/strong> is 12\/1<\/strong> (which is the same as 12).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So instead of dividing 7 by 1\/12, we multiply 7 by 12:7\u00f7112=7\u00d71217 \\div \\frac{1}{12} = 7 \\times \\frac{12}{1}7\u00f7121\u200b=7\u00d7112\u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now multiply the numerators (top numbers) and the denominators (bottom numbers):7\u00d7121\u00d71=841\\frac{7 \\times 12}{1 \\times 1} = \\frac{84}{1}1\u00d717\u00d712\u200b=184\u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This fraction, 84\/1<\/strong>, simplifies to the whole number 84<\/strong>, because any number divided by 1 is itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To understand what this means in real-world terms, imagine you have 7 whole items\u2014say, 7 pies\u2014and each pie is cut into twelfths (1\/12-sized pieces). You’re asked: “How many 1\/12-sized pieces can you get from 7 pies?”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each pie gives you 12 pieces (since 1 \u00f7 1\/12 = 12). So 7 pies give:7\u00d712=84 one-twelfth pieces7 \\times 12 = 84 \\text{ one-twelfth pieces}7\u00d712=84 one-twelfth pieces<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is why 7 \u00f7 1\/12 = 84<\/strong>. It shows how many 1\/12 units fit into 7 wholes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fraction form, we started with:7=717 = \\frac{7}{1}7=17\u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So:71\u00f7112=71\u00d7121=841\\frac{7}{1} \\div \\frac{1}{12} = \\frac{7}{1} \\times \\frac{12}{1} = \\frac{84}{1}17\u200b\u00f7121\u200b=17\u200b\u00d7112\u200b=184\u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The final simplified fraction is 84\/1<\/strong>, and the simplest whole number is 84<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thus, 7 \u00f7 1\/12 = 84<\/strong>, and that\u2019s your complete answer and explanation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
