Question

What is 1,300 divided by 1,000? how do you turn the answer into a whole or mixed fraction? 

Answer 1

Kemal's answer

 1 (300/1000)
we can further simplify the fraction by dividing by 100 so we get
1 (3/10)

 

used EXTREMELY UNCOMMON NOTATION.  The answer is 1.3 in decimal form, or "one and three tenths"

which is normally written as 1 3/10 on this awkward platform.  

 

On paper or a white board, a mixed number such as this

would be written as 1 immediately followed by the fraction three over ten.

Answer 2

Hi Melissa,

 

1300/1000 = 1 with a remainder of 300

 

the way to express this as a mixed fraction is to write down the result of the division and then write down the remainder above the denominator 

 

1 (300/1000)

we can further simplify the fraction by dividing by 100 so we get

1 (3/10)
