Chapter 6.4, Problem 6OE

To determine

To find: The complete expression.

Answer to Problem 6OE

The complete expressionis $\frac{a}{b}=\frac{ab}{b^2}$.

Explanation of Solution

Given,

The given expression is $\frac{a}{b}=\frac{?}{b^2}$.

Calculation:

  $b$ is multiplied by $b$ to get $b^2$.

Multiply $a$ by $b$ to get $ab$.

  $\frac{a}{b}=\frac{a\cdot b}{b\cdot b}=\frac{ab}{b^2}$

Therefore, the complete expressionis $\frac{a}{b}=\frac{ab}{b^2}$.
