Methods
Breaking down the problem:
First, let’s break down each piece of the problem. We have the fraction, 1/15, which is also the dividend, and the whole number, or the divisor, which is 52:
Numerator of the dividend: 1
Denominator of the dividend: 15
Whole number and divisor: 52
So, what is 1/15 Divided by 52? Let’s work through the problem and find the answer in both fraction and decimal forms.
What is 1/15 Divided by 52, Step-by-step
First let’s set up the problem:
1
15
÷
52
\frac{1}{15} ÷ 52
15 1 ÷ 52
Step 1:
The first step of this solution is to multiple the denominator of the dividend, 15, by the whole number 52:
15 x 52 = 780
Step 2:
The result of this multiplication will now become the denominator of the answer. The answer to the problem in fraction form can now be seen:
780/1 = 780/1
A fraction that has 1 as its denominator is an improper fraction. So, we should simplify this to just the numerator. Since the numerator is a whole number, there is no reason to write the answer in decimal form.
So,
1 divided by 15/52 =
780
