Question

3 divided by 4 over 7

  1. 4 over 14
  2. 7 over 8
  3. 21 over 4
  4. 8 over 7

hintHint:

The first step to dividing fractions is to find the reciprocal (reverse the numerator and denominator) of the second fraction. Next, multiply the two numerators. Then, multiply the two denominators. Finally, simplify the fractions if needed.

The correct answer is: 21 over 4


Here, we have to find the value of 3 divided by 4⁄7.
We have, 3 ÷ 4⁄7
= 3 × 7⁄4
= 21⁄4.
Hence, the correct option is C.
