Answer to Question 1

1

Rationale 1: First rewrite the equation as 13/15 x 200/1  11/17. Next, invert the fraction 11/17 to make the new equation of 13/15 x 200/1 x 17/11. Then reduce the denominator 15 and numerator 200 by 5 so that the new equation is 13/3 x 40/1 x 17/11. Next multiply the numerators and the denominators to reach the fraction of 8840/33. Now divide the denominator 33 into 8840 to reach the number of 267 88/100. Now reduce the fraction of 88/100 by 4 to reach the fraction of 22/25. The final answer is 267 22/25.

Answer to Question 2

1

Rationale 1: Write 4 3/7 as the improper fraction of 23/5 and 2 5/8 as the improper fraction 21/8. Then set up the equation by inverting the second fraction or 23/5 x 8/21 = 184/105. Now reduce the fraction by dividing 105 into 184 or 1 75/100. Reduce the fraction of 75/100 further by 5 until the fraction  is reached. The answer is 1 .
