How do you divide a number by a fraction?

When dividing fractions these are the steps you will take:

1. The first number in the expression stays the same (if it is a whole number then you may just place a one in the denominator and keep the numerator the same as the whole number  

2. Change the division sign into a multiplication sign

3. Take the reciprocal (switch the places of numerator and denominator) of the second number in the expression

4. Multiply across (Numerators multiply with each other. Denominators multiply with each other)

step-by-step explanation:

a.   since the profit made in 2012 is equal to the profit made in 2014, the profit is           symmetric about the line y = 120,000.

step-by-step explanation:

given that megan owns a clothing boutique.

the profits of 2010, 11, are recorded and shown as follows:

years since     2010 0     1     2     3       4       5

profits made in 1000's   39       84     111     120   111     84

we find that profit gradually increases form 2010 to 2013 upto 120,   then starts decreasing.

the profits for 2012 and 2014 are the same while that of 2011 and 2015 are also the same.

this shows that there is symmetry about the line profit = 120000

hence answer is:

a.   since the profit made in 2012 is equal to the profit made in 2014, the profit is           symmetric about the line y = 120,000.
