What does the word “flip” tell you to do in “keep change flip” for dividing fractions a) change the place of the numbers numerator and the denominator for the first fraction b) change the places of the numbers in the numerator and the denominator for the second fraction c) change the places of the numbers in the numerator and the denominator for both fractions d) change the ÷ between the fractions

Answer :

Answer:

b) change the places of the numbers in the numerator and the denominator for the second fraction

Step-by-step explanation:

In the phrase "keep change flip":

You "keep" the first fraction.

"Change" the division sign into a multiplication sign.  

"Flip" (or switch) the places of the numerator and denominator in the second fraction.

Example:

[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] ÷ [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{2}*\frac{3}{1}=\frac{3}{2}=1.5[/tex]

Hope this helps.
