STOP- DROP(The division sign)- FLIP(the fraction being divided- 2nd fraction)!
So, it would be 7/12 * 15/14= 105/168 - simplifies to 5/8
Just remember stop drop flip!
Dividing the fraction 7/12 by 14/15 will give us 5/8. This is done by multiplying the first equation with the reciprocal of the second before dividing with their common divisor
When you divide by a fraction, it's the same as multiplying by its reciprocal. The reciprocal of a fraction is created by switching the numerator and the denominator.
So the reciprocal of 14/15 is 15/14.
Therefore, the division problem
7/12 ÷ 14/15
can be rewritten as
7/12 × 15/14.
Performing this multiplication gives:
(7 × 15) / (12 × 14)
= 105 / 168
= 5/8
Note that this fraction (105 / 168) can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 21, to get:
105/21 / 168/21 = 5/8

Answer:
dependent variable = t
independent variable = p
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, in the equation t=12p+12, p is the independent variable, because is an input value.
t is the dependent variable, because is the output value, it depends of the input value.
For example if p =1, t=24
t(1) =12(1) +12
t(1) = 12+12 =24
But if p=0; t=12
t (0) = 12(0) +12 =12
We can see how the value of t varies as the value of p changes.
in thers of the statement, the total cost of the meal (t) depends on the tip percentage (p).
