Question 18

$2 \frac{2}{3} \div 5$ is equal to

(a) $\frac{8}{15}$
(b) $\frac{40}{3}$

Solution

Given, $2 \frac{2}{3} \div 5 = \frac{(2 \times 3) + 2}{3} \div 5 = \frac{6 + 2}{3} \div 5 = \frac{8}{3} \times \frac{1}{5} [∵ reciprocal of 5 = \frac{1}{5}] = \frac{8}{15}$
Hence, $2 \frac{2}{3} \div 5$ is equal to $\frac{8}{15}$
