Question

1. $\frac{21}{2}$ = 4) $\frac{77}{8}$ = 5) $\frac{20}{8}$ =

Explanation:

Step1: Simplify $\frac{21}{2}$

Divide 21 by 2. $21\div2 = 10.5$ or as a mixed number $10\frac{1}{2}$.

Step2: Simplify $\frac{77}{8}$

Divide 77 by 8. $77\div8 = 9.625$ or as a mixed number $9\frac{5}{8}$.

Step3: Simplify $\frac{20}{8}$

First, reduce the fraction by dividing numerator and denominator by 4: $\frac{20\div4}{8\div4}=\frac{5}{2}$. Then divide 5 by 2: $5\div2 = 2.5$ or as a mixed number $2\frac{1}{2}$.

Answer:

1. $\frac{21}{2}=10.5$ (or $10\frac{1}{2}$)
2. $\frac{77}{8}=9.625$ (or $9\frac{5}{8}$)
3. $\frac{20}{8}=2.5$ (or $2\frac{1}{2}$)
