Olivia divided a fraction by 3/4. the quotient was a whole number. was the the dividend less than 3/4? explain

Let's assume

Let's assume that fraction as 'x'

and whole number as 'n'

Olivia divided a fraction by 3/4

so, we get

The quotient was a whole number

so, we get

now, we can solve for x

where n is whole numbers

At n=0:

here , x is not fraction

so, n=0 is not possible

At n=1:

At n=2:

we know that x is dividend

and x can be equal to 3/4

and greater than 3/4

But it can not be less than 3/4..............Answer

answer: first option i.e. 'a' is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

since we have given that

number of minutes to wrap a small gift box = 4 minutes

we need to find the number of gifts to be wrapped in 5 minutes

since there is a direct variation, as the number of minutes will increase with   number of gifts to be wrapped.

so, let the number of gifts to be wrapped in 5 minutes be x.

so, it becomes,

hence, first option 'a'   is correct.

think the answer would beb
