What is 1/13 Divided by 21?
Methods
Breaking down the problem:
First, let’s break down each piece of the problem. We have the fraction, 1/13, which is also the dividend, and the whole number, or the divisor, which is 21:
Numerator of the dividend: 1
Denominator of the dividend: 13
Whole number and divisor: 21
So, what is 1/13 Divided by 21? Let’s work through the problem and find the answer in both fraction and decimal forms.
What is 1/13 Divided by 21, Step-by-step
First let’s set up the problem:
1
13
÷
21
\frac{1}{13} ÷ 21
13 1 ÷ 21
Step 1:
The first step of this solution is to multiple the denominator of the dividend, 13, by the whole number 21:
13 x 21 = 273
Step 2:
The result of this multiplication will now become the denominator of the answer. The answer to the problem in fraction form can now be seen:
273/1 = 273/1
A fraction that has 1 as its denominator is an improper fraction. So, we should simplify this to just the numerator. Since the numerator is a whole number, there is no reason to write the answer in decimal form.
So,
1 divided by 13/21 =
273
