First, let’s break down each piece of the problem. We have the fraction, 3/1, which is also the dividend, and the whole number, or the divisor, which is 56:
Numerator of the dividend: 3
Denominator of the dividend: 1
Whole number and divisor: 56
So what is 3/1 Divided by 56? Let’s work through the problem, and find the answer in both fraction and decimal forms.
