To find:
The correct statement for solution of the given expression.
Solution:
We have,
[tex]12\div \dfrac{3}{5}[/tex]
If a number is divided by a fraction, then we need to multiply the reciprocal of the fraction with the number.
It can be written as
[tex]12\div \dfrac{3}{5}=12\times \dfrac{5}{3}[/tex]
[tex]12\div \dfrac{3}{5}=\dfrac{12\times 5}{3}[/tex]
[tex]12\div \dfrac{3}{5}=\dfrac{60}{3}[/tex]
[tex]12\div \dfrac{3}{5}=20[/tex]
To simplify the given expression, we need to multiply 12 by 5, then divide by 3.
Therefore, the correct option is D.
