What is the quotient of 5 1/2 ÷ 3/8?

14 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

It's easiest to convert 5 1/2 to the improper fraction 11/2.

Then the problem calls for dividing 11/2 by 3/8, which, in turn, is equivalent to

the product of 11/2 and 8/3:

 11      8

* = 88/6 or 44/3 or 14 2/3

  2      3

Optionally you could convert to mixed decimal fractions:

5.5

= 14 2/3 (same as before)

0.375

dilation scale factor 2: starting with δabc, draw the dilation image of the triangle with a center at the origin and a scale factor of two. notice that every coordinate of the original triangle has been multiplied by the scale factor (x2). dilation with scale factor 2, multiply by 2.
