Poem To Divide Fractions :Dividing fractions is easy as pie flip the second then multiply !~Never flip the first!!!!!!!!!!Ex: 1/7 Divided by 1/5 = 1/7 Divided by 5/1 < you flip the second= 5/7Then Simplify(if told) till you cant simplify No more. :)Inverse the divisor and multiply as for example 3/4 divided by 3/5 becomes 3/4 multiplied by 5/3 = 15/12 or 5/4 in its lowest terms
Multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second. 2/3 divided by 4/5 = 2/3 x 5/4

4/5 is a proper fraction. Proper fractions can't become improper fractions; it wouldn't be proper.

Fractions are representations of division. The line in a fraction can be read as "divided by." 3/4 = 3 divided by 4
In order to divide fractions there is a method called the "Kiss and Flip". Basically, two fractions divided by one another is the same thing as one fraction multiplied by the inverse of the second....A) 1/5 / 1/4 (these are your two fractions)B) 1/5 / 1/4 (the fractions "Kiss" a.k.a. come together)C) 1/5 X 4/1 (and the second fraction "flips". When the second fraction flips the division sign becomes a multiplication sign)D) 1/5 x 4/1 = 4/5 (at this point you multiply the numerators straight across and then the denominators. This is your answer!)
They are similar. When dividing fractions, you multiply by the reciprocal. 2/5 divided by 3/4 is the same as 2/5 x 4/3
Because fractions require division. 1/2 is the same as one divided by two.

19 divided by 5 = 3.8 Twenty fifths would be a whole number 4.
multiply the fraction by the inverted whole number ex) 4/5 divided by 4= 4/5 x 1/4 = 1/5
To divide fractions, multiply by the reciprocal. 3/4 divided by 2/5 = 3/4 x 5/2
Multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second. 2/3 divided by 4/5 = 2/3 x 5/4
