Dividing fractions is very easy. Let's say we have 4/5 divided by 6/7.
6/7 is what you are dividing by so you turn it upside down and multiply. 7/6 times 4/5. Multiply top and top, bottom and bottom.
28/30 or 14/15 in lowest terms.

If you are talking about decimal fractions it is easy too. You have to move the decimal point on the divisor as far to the right as possible and count how many places you moved it. No go to the dividend and move it's decimal point the same number of places. If you run out of digits add zeros to the right. Now divide like a non decimal problem and keep the decimal point directly above the one in the dividend.

Just for your information Google is also a calculator. Just type a math problem into the search box and press enter.

get a tutor...ask the teacher...you better not let yoself get behind. that happened to me once. it sucks BAD. ask someone... parents... anyone. just dont gi behind! oh, and all you do is..say your dividing 1/4 by 2. multiply. multiply 1.4 times 2/1 and you get 2/4...or 1/2. does that make sense? all you do is get the number you dividing by and put a one under it then multiply. simple.
