Which values of a, b, and c represent the answer in simplest form? StartFraction 5 Over 8 EndFraction divided by StartFraction 3 Over 8 EndFraction = a StartFraction b Over c EndFraction

A. a = 1, b = 3, c = 2

B. a = 1, b = 40, c = 24

C. a = 1, b = 16, c = 24

D. a = 1, b = 2, c = 3

a

Step-by-step explanation:

i looked a the calculator

trust me on this answer. It is D, a = 1, b = 2, c = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so the problem is 5/8 divided by 3/8.

So, you find the reciprocal, which then is 5/8 x 8/3

Since there is an 8 is both the first denominator and the second numerator, you cross them out, which leaves you 5/3

So, 5 can go into 3, only 1 time.

5/3 = 3/3 + 2/3

So, 3/3 + 2/3 = 1 2/3

Therefore, D is the answer of choice.

idk

step-by-step explanation:

a 4/6 = 9/12   not proportional

step-by-step explanation:

to find which are not proportional, we can use cross products

if it is true, they are proportional.   if it is not true, they are not proportional.

a 4/6 = 9/12

4* 12 = 6*9

48 = 54

not this is not proportional  

b 2/3 = 12/18  

2* 18 = 3 * 12

36 = 36

this is proportional

c 5/4 = 10/8  

5*8 = 4*10

40 = 40

this is proportional

d 7/5 = 35/25

7*25 = 5 * 35

175 = 175

is proportional
