Question: 15 ÷ 2/6

Answer: Turn the 15 into 15/1 (15 over 1 as it is a whole number)

Turn the ÷ into a ×

15/1 × 2/6

The final crucial step is to swap the 15 and 1 around

15/1 to 1/15 and then do the calculation

Evaluation:

15 ÷ 2/6 = 15/1 × 2/6 = 1/15 × 2/6

Conclusion:

15 ÷ 2/6 = 2/90 = 45
