What is 1/20 Divided by 89?
Methods
Breaking down the problem:
First, let’s break down each piece of the problem. We have the fraction, 1/20, which is also the dividend, and the whole number, or the divisor, which is 89:
Numerator of the dividend: 1
Denominator of the dividend: 20
Whole number and divisor: 89
So, what is 1/20 Divided by 89? Let’s work through the problem and find the answer in both fraction and decimal forms.
What is 1/20 Divided by 89, Step-by-step
First let’s set up the problem:
1
20
÷
89
\frac{1}{20} ÷ 89
20 1 ÷ 89
Step 1:
The first step of this solution is to multiple the denominator of the dividend, 20, by the whole number 89:
20 x 89 = 1780
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:
1780/1 = 1780/1
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 20/89 =
1780
