Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The expression
Formula used:
Mixed fractions of the form
Product of two real numbers is obtained when they are multiplied together. That is two or more numbers are separated by multiplication signs
Division in real numbers is multiplication by reciprocal. If
Here,
Calculation:
Consider the expression
Recall that mixed fractions of the form
So,
Recall that division in real numbers is multiplication by reciprocal. If
Here,
Apply it,
12 can be written as the product of 3 and 4.
Simplify further it as,
Striking off the common terms, we get,
Recall that product of two real numbers is obtained when they are multiplied together. That is two or more numbers are separated by multiplication signs
Simplify it,
Thus, the quotient of the expression
