2. Solution Steps

First, convert the decimal 3.63.6 to a fraction.
3.6=36103.6 = \frac{36}{10}
Then, dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal. So, 3.6÷914=3610×1493.6 \div \frac{9}{14} = \frac{36}{10} \times \frac{14}{9}
Now, we can simplify the fractions before multiplying.
3610×149=4×910×149=410×14=25×14=2×145=285\frac{36}{10} \times \frac{14}{9} = \frac{4 \times 9}{10} \times \frac{14}{9} = \frac{4}{10} \times 14 = \frac{2}{5} \times 14 = \frac{2 \times 14}{5} = \frac{28}{5}
Now, convert the improper fraction 285\frac{28}{5} to a mixed number or a decimal.
285=535\frac{28}{5} = 5\frac{3}{5}
