Remember for division of fractions ; 'CHANGE THE SIGN TO MULTIPLY AND INVERT THE RIGHT HAND FRACTION', then proceed as for multiplication.
Here is an example: -
5 1/5 divide 4 4/5
Convert to improper fractions.
26/5 divide 24/5
Hence apply the rule
26/5 X 5/24
Cancel del down by '5'
26/1 X 1/24
Cancel down by '2'
13/12
Simplify
13/12 = 1 1/12 (The answer)
