What is 2/20 Divided by 99?
Methods
Breaking down the problem:
First, let’s break down each piece of the problem. We have the fraction, 2/20, which is also the dividend, and the whole number, or the divisor, which is 99:
Numerator of the dividend: 2
Denominator of the dividend: 20
Whole number and divisor: 99
So, what is 2/20 Divided by 99? Let’s work through the problem and find the answer in both fraction and decimal forms.
What is 2/20 Divided by 99, Step-by-step
First let’s set up the problem:
2
20
÷
99
\frac{2}{20} ÷ 99
20 2 ÷ 99
Step 1:
The first step of this solution is to multiple the denominator of the dividend, 20, by the whole number 99:
20 x 99 = 1980
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:
1980/2 = 990/1
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,
2 divided by 20/99 =
990
