Math Problem Statement

No its 2 over 2 thirds divided by 2 thirds over 2

Solution

Thank you for the clarification! Now let's solve the expression 223÷232\frac{2}{\frac{2}{3}} \div \frac{\frac{2}{3}}{2}.

Step 1: Simplify each part of the expression

  1. First part: 223\frac{2}{\frac{2}{3}}

    • Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal: 223=2×32=62=3\frac{2}{\frac{2}{3}} = 2 \times \frac{3}{2} = \frac{6}{2} = 3
  2. Second part: 232\frac{\frac{2}{3}}{2}

    • Simplify this fraction: 232=23×12=2×13×2=26=13\frac{\frac{2}{3}}{2} = \frac{2}{3} \times \frac{1}{2} = \frac{2 \times 1}{3 \times 2} = \frac{2}{6} = \frac{1}{3}

Step 2: Combine the simplified parts

Now, we have: 3÷133 \div \frac{1}{3}

Step 3: Divide by the fraction

Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal: 3×3=93 \times 3 = 9

So, the value of the expression 223÷232\frac{2}{\frac{2}{3}} \div \frac{\frac{2}{3}}{2} is 9.
