Steps to divide 11/12 by 3

Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal, so 11/12 ÷ 3 is solved by turning the divisor upside down and multiplying. Here is every step.

Step 1: Write both numbers as fractions

A whole number is written over 1, and a mixed number becomes an improper fraction: multiply the whole part by the denominator and add the numerator.

3 = 3/1

Step 2: Flip the divisor

The reciprocal of 3/1 is 1/3, because a fraction and its reciprocal multiply to 1. Division by 3/1 therefore becomes multiplication by 1/3.

11/12 ÷ 3/1 = 11/12 × 1/3

Step 3: Multiply across

Multiply the numerators together and the denominators together.

11/12 × 1/3

=

(11 × 1)/(12 × 3)

=

11/36
