1. To calculate 750/1000, you can simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator (750) and the denominator (1000) by the greatest common divisor (GCD). In this case, the GCD of 750 and 1000 is 250, because 750 ÷ 250 = 3 and 1000 ÷ 250 = 4. Therefore, when we simplify the fraction we get:
750/1000 = (750 ÷ 250)/(1000 ÷ 250) = 3/4.
2. To calculate 1000/150, you also want to simplify the fraction. You find the GCD of 1000 and 150, which is 50. When simplifying, you get:
1000/150 = (1000 ÷ 50)/(150 ÷ 50) = 20/3.
20/3 is an improper fraction and can be also written as a mixed number, which is:
20 ÷ 3 = 6 with a remainder of 2, so the mixed number is 6 2/3.
3. For 1000/750, we simplify it by looking for the GCD of 1000 and 750, which is 250. After simplifying we have:
1000/750 = (1000 ÷ 250)/(750 ÷ 250) = 4/3.
4/3 is also an improper fraction and as a mixed number, it would be:
4 ÷ 3 = 1 with a remainder of 1, hence the mixed number is 1 1/3.
