First, let’s break down each piece of the problem. We have the fraction, 15/7, which is also the dividend, and the whole number, or the divisor, which is 12:
Numerator of the dividend: 15
Denominator of the dividend: 7
Whole number and divisor: 12
So what is 15/7 Divided by 12? Let’s work through the problem, and find the answer in both fraction and decimal forms.
