The way your problem is worded, we can't understand what is being asked. Is it 36 divided by 4/9?

23. anonymous

yes

24. anonymous

thanks

25. anonymous

26. anonymous

did you see

27. anonymous

get the reciprocal of 4/9. and it is 9/4 multiplied to 36. we get 324 divided by 4 is 81

28. anonymous

When you divide a number by a fraction, you're basically multiplying it by the inverse. The inverse of a fraction is a fraction flipped over. e.g. (3/4)'s inverse would be (4/3). 36 divided by (4/9) would be 36 multiplied by (9/4).

of means multiplied do yo mean 36 divided by 4 times 9 since i see no grouping symbols i will do the division and mutltiplication as it occurs left to right 9*9 81

30. anonymous

ok thanks

31. anonymous

Multiplication and division have the same priority in math, so you don't have to worry about parentheses.

32. anonymous

thanks for helping meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

33. myininaya

36 divided by 4 times 9 is not the same as 36 divided by (4 times 9)

34. myininaya

36 divided by (4 times 9) =36/36=1

35. anonymous

... I must be too tired to think straight at this hour. My apologies.

36. anonymous

destrielve-do not apologize. The question can't be understood.

37. anonymous

My apology was directed towards my statement that parentheses did not matter for multiplication/division, actually. He cleared up the questioned a little bit earlier. Sort of.

38. myininaya

i;m a her if you mean me

39. myininaya

but for reals no apology we are trying to help

40. myininaya

we are all*

41. anonymous

yeah.. what is really the question?

42. myininaya

i read it as $36 \div 4 \times 9$

43. anonymous

44. anonymous

remember the order of operations?

45. myininaya

yes thats right we already got 81

46. anonymous

According to the OP, his question was 36 / (4 / 9).

47. anonymous

we must divide 36 by 4 first then multiply it by 9

48. myininaya

right gj

49. anonymous

lol..

50. myininaya

bonus points for all

51. anonymous

yeah.. hehehe

52. anonymous

$\frac{36}{4}\times9 = \frac{36\times9}{4} =\frac{324}{4}=81$
