Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]The\ value\ of\ \frac{6 \frac{1}{2}}{\frac{3}{4}} \ is\ \frac{26}{3}.[/tex]

[tex]The\ value\ of\ \frac{6 \frac{1}{2}}{\frac{3}{4}} \ is\ 8.67 (Approx).[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

[tex]Monique\ made\ several\ batches\ of\ soup\ for\ a\ potluck\ supper.[/tex]

[tex]Each\ batch\ required\ \frac{3}{4}\ of\ a\ pound\ of\ potatoes.[/tex]

[tex]she\ used\ a\ total\ of\ 6 \frac{1}{2}\ pounds\ of\ potatoes.[/tex]

As given the expression.

[tex]= \frac{6 \frac{1}{2}}{\frac{3}{4}}[/tex]

[tex]= \frac{\frac{13}{2}}{\frac{3}{4}}[/tex]

Solving the above

[tex]= \frac{13\times 4}{2\times 3}[/tex]

[tex]= \frac{26}{3}[/tex]

In the decimal form.

= 8.67 (Approx)

[tex]Therefore\ the\ value\ of\ \frac{6 \frac{1}{2}}{\frac{3}{4}} \ is\ \frac{26}{3}.[/tex]

[tex]Therefore\ the\ value\ of\ \frac{6 \frac{1}{2}}{\frac{3}{4}} \ is\ 8.67 (Approx).[/tex]
