Answer 1

U would actually do both...because when ur dividing fractions, u end up multiplying....but u start with dividing.
6 / (1/3) =
6 * 3 = 18 <== ur answer

Answer 2

Answer: a. 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The time taken by you to type a memo=$\dfrac{1}{3}$

The time ( in hours ), you have planned to work = 6 hours

Then , the number of memos you can type in that amount of time will be :_

$6\div\dfrac{1}{3}=6\times\dfrac{3}{1}=18$

Hence, the number of memos you can type in that amount of time = 18
