So, what is 14 divided by 13/17? Let’s work through the problem, and find the answer in both fraction and decimal forms.
What is 14 Divided by 13/17, Step-by-step
First let’s set up the problem:
14
÷
13
17
14 ÷ \frac{13}{17}
14 ÷ 17 13
Step 1:
Take the whole number, 14, and multiply it by the denominator of the fraction, 17:
14 x 17 = 238
Step 2:
The numerator of the fraction will now become the denominator of the answer. The answer to the problem in fraction form can now be seen:
14
⋅
17
13
=
238
13
\frac{ 14 \cdot 17 }{13} = \frac{238}{13}
13 14 ⋅ 17 = 13 238
To display the answer to 14 divided by 13/17 in decimal form, you can divide the numerator, 238, by the denominator, 13. The answer can be rounded to the nearest three decimal points, if needed:
238
13
=
238
13
=
18.31
\frac{238}{13} = \frac{238}{13}= 18.31
13 238 = 13 238 = 18.31
So, in decimal form, 14 divided by 13/17 = 18.31
