Question

Divide the following

$28p^2{q}^{2}by7p{q}^2$

Answer 1

Finding division

First, write in fractional form as:

$28p^2{q}^2÷7p{q}^2=\frac{28p^2{q}^2}{7p{q}^2}$

Divide the numerical coefficient.

$\frac{28p^2{q}^2}{7p{q}^2}=\frac{4p^2{q}^2}{p{q}^2}$

Now, divide the literal coefficient.

$$\begin{gathered} \frac{4p^2{q}^2}{p{q}^2}=4p \\ So,28p^2{q}^2÷7p{q}^2=4p \end{gathered}$$
