What is the quotient of 2 1/4 and 5/8?

It's simple math, but if you don't understand, we can help. To begin with, you must first convert 2 1/4 to an improper fraction. You'd be left with 9/4 after the conversion. Write out 9/4 ÷ 5/8. After doing so, find the reciprocal of 5/8 (switch the numerator and the denominator). Now, write out the question as 9/4 × 8/5. Multiply straight across, as you do not need common denominators when multiplying or dividing fractions. Your final answer should be 72/20. When simplified, you should get 3 2/20, or when simplified to the smallest amount, 3 1/10. Hope I was clear enough to help! :)
