Methods
Breaking down the problem:
First, let’s break down each piece of the problem. We have the fraction, 1/19, which is also the dividend, and the whole number, or the divisor, which is 3:
Numerator of the dividend: 1
Denominator of the dividend: 19
Whole number and divisor: 3
So, what is 1/19 Divided by 3? Let’s work through the problem and find the answer in both fraction and decimal forms.
What is 1/19 Divided by 3, Step-by-step
First let’s set up the problem:
1
19
÷
3
\frac{1}{19} ÷ 3
19 1 ÷ 3
Step 1:
The first step of this solution is to multiple the denominator of the dividend, 19, by the whole number 3:
19 x 3 = 57
Step 2:
The result of this multiplication will now become the denominator of the answer. The answer to the problem in fraction form can now be seen:
57/1 = 57/1
A fraction that has 1 as its denominator is an improper fraction. So, we should simplify this to just the numerator. Since the numerator is a whole number, there is no reason to write the answer in decimal form.
So,
1 divided by 19/3 =
57
