The correct Answer is:
To simplify the expression \( \frac{1}{6} \) of \( \left( 1 \frac{1}{9} \div 7 \frac{1}{2} \right) \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Convert Mixed Numbers to Improper Fractions First, we need to convert the mixed numbers \( 1 \frac{1}{9} \) and \( 7 \frac{1}{2} \) into improper fractions. - For \( 1 \frac{1}{9} \): \[ 1 \frac{1}{9} = \frac{1 \times 9 + 1}{9} = \frac{10}{9} \] - For \( 7 \frac{1}{2} \): \[ 7 \frac{1}{2} = \frac{7 \times 2 + 1}{2} = \frac{15}{2} \] ### Step 2: Rewrite the Expression Now, we can rewrite the expression: \[ \frac{1}{6} \text{ of } \left( \frac{10}{9} \div \frac{15}{2} \right) \] ### Step 3: Change Division to Multiplication Next, we change the division to multiplication by taking the reciprocal of the second fraction: \[ \frac{10}{9} \div \frac{15}{2} = \frac{10}{9} \times \frac{2}{15} \] ### Step 4: Multiply the Fractions Now, we multiply the fractions: \[ \frac{10 \times 2}{9 \times 15} = \frac{20}{135} \] ### Step 5: Simplify the Fraction Now we need to simplify \( \frac{20}{135} \): - The greatest common divisor (GCD) of 20 and 135 is 5. - Dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 5: \[ \frac{20 \div 5}{135 \div 5} = \frac{4}{27} \] ### Step 6: Multiply by \( \frac{1}{6} \) Now we multiply \( \frac{1}{6} \) by \( \frac{4}{27} \): \[ \frac{1}{6} \times \frac{4}{27} = \frac{1 \times 4}{6 \times 27} = \frac{4}{162} \] ### Step 7: Final Simplification Now we simplify \( \frac{4}{162} \): - The GCD of 4 and 162 is 2. - Dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 2: \[ \frac{4 \div 2}{162 \div 2} = \frac{2}{81} \] ### Final Answer The simplified result is: \[ \frac{2}{81} \]
