Answer 1

Do you know how to multiply fractions?

To divide two fractions, just invert the second fraction and multiply.

For example:
3/4 ÷ 5/6

3 ... 5
-- ÷ ---
4 ... 6

Invert and multiply:
3 .. 6 .... 18
-- x --- = ----
4 .. 5 .... 20

Reduce as before:
= 9/10

Another example:
3/4 ÷ 2

3 ... 2
-- ÷ ---
4 ... 1

Invert and multiply:
3 .. 1 .... 3
-- x --- = ---
4 .. 2 .... 8

= 3/8

Answer 2

switch the numerator and denominator of one of the fractions, and multiply them.

example: 2/3 divided by 3/4 = 2/3 times 4/3 = 8/9

Answer 3

alright so dividing fractions is somewhat multiplying the reciprocal, or opposite. meaning 5/sixteen divided by using 3/2 somewhat is asserting 5/sixteen * 2/3. So the respond could be 10/40 8 and simplified you may get 5/12.

Answer 4

okay dividing fractions are the same as multiplying by the reciprocal.

for example, 1/2 divided by 3/2 is the same as 1/2 multiplied by 2/3. which is 2/6 which simplifies into 1/3.

I hope i could help!!

Answer 5

to divide fractions you take the inverse of the second term and then you multiply like for ex. :
1/2 divide 1/2 you take the inverse of the second term
1/2 x 2 and you change the sign to x
= 1

Answer 6

lol like 6th grade?

im in 10th....

but yeah, just flip the second one, and multiply:

5/4 divided by 1/2
5/4 times 2/1
10/4 reduced to
(5/4 or 1 1/4) <--- Answer!

Answer 7

Find the reciprocal (switch the top and bottom) of the second fraction and multiply the top with the top and the bottom with the bottom.
