What is 9 Divided by 13/2?

Let's examine the problem: What is 9 Divided by 13/2? Here we'll express the solution in both fractional and decimal forms, step by step.

We start by identifying the different elements of the equation: The whole number or the dividend is 9, the numerator of the divisor is 13 and the denominator of the divisor is 2.

This breaks down as follows:

      9 ÷ \(\frac{13}{2}\)
    

In the first step, we multiply the whole number, 9, by the denominator of the fraction, 2, which equals 18.

      9 x 2 = 18
    

In the second step, the numerator of the fraction becomes the denominator of the answer. Hence, in fraction form, the answer would be:

      \(\frac{ 9 \times 2 }{13} = \frac{18}{13}\)
    

To express the answer in decimal form, we divide the numerator, 18, by the denominator, 13:

      \(\frac{18}{13} = 1.38\)
    

So, 9 divided by 13/2 equals 18/13 in its simplest fractional form, and 1.38 in decimal form.
