45/2

Explanation:

Proceed using the following steps.

• " Leave the first number"

• " Change division to multiplication"

• " Invert (turn upside down) the second number"

• " Cancel, if possible, and simplify"

There is no cancelling, so simplify by multiplying values remaining on numerator/denominator.

rArr5/1xx9/2

=(5xx9)/(1xx2)
