Methods
Breaking down the problem:
First, let’s break down each piece of the problem. We have the fraction, 1/18, which is also the dividend, and the whole number, or the divisor, which is 56:
Numerator of the dividend: 1
Denominator of the dividend: 18
Whole number and divisor: 56
So, what is 1/18 Divided by 56? Let’s work through the problem and find the answer in both fraction and decimal forms.
What is 1/18 Divided by 56, Step-by-step
First let’s set up the problem:
1
18
÷
56
\frac{1}{18} ÷ 56
18 1 ÷ 56
Step 1:
The first step of this solution is to multiple the denominator of the dividend, 18, by the whole number 56:
18 x 56 = 1008
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:
1008/1 = 1008/1
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 18/56 =
1008
