Answer
$\frac{7}{12}$
Work Step by Step
$\frac{7}{8}$ $\div$ 1$\frac{1}{2}$
First convert the mixed fraction 1$\frac{1}{2}$ into improper fraction
1$\frac{1}{2}$
Multiply whole number 1 to denominator and than add numerator to it. 3
Put 3 in the numerator than denominator is going to be the same
$\frac{3}{2}$
$\frac{7}{8}$ $\div$ $\frac{3}{2}$
The reciprocal of $\frac{3}{2}$ is $\frac{2}{3}$
Now multiply $\frac{7}{8}$ and the reciprocal $\frac{2}{3}$
$\frac{7}{8}$ *$\frac{2}{3}$
Divide the numerator and denominator by common factor 2
$\frac{7* 1}{4 * 3}$ = $\frac{7}{12}$
$\frac{7}{12}$ is in lowest term.
