3/4 divided by 6/7=
3/4 x 7/6 (reverse the order to multiply; cancel out the 3 & 6)=
1/4 x7/2= multiply across, numerator and denominator = 7/8

Dividing fractions can look harder than it is. Just remember to inverse and multiply. Since the problem is 3/4 divided by 6/7 you should inverse the the second fraction and write 3/4 x 7/6. Then multiply the numerators together to get 21 and then the denominators together to get 24. So the answer would 21/24. The reduce the fraction by using the lowest common factor, which is 3. This would give you a final answer of 7/8. I hope this helped!

3/4 divided by 6/7
When you divide two fractions, you flip the second fraction and multiply across.
so it would be
3/4 times 7/6 or (3x7)/(4x6)
If you want to check it put it into a calculator. I always like to work out the answer then use a calculator to check it.

You flip them over 4 over 3 and 6 over 7 and then multiply them, I think.
