what is dividing fractions and mixed numebers
Yes.
To divide mixed numbers, first convert each mixed number into an improper fraction. For example, convert (2 \frac{1}{3}) into (\frac{7}{3}) by multiplying the whole number by the denominator and adding the numerator. Next, take the reciprocal of the second improper fraction and multiply it by the first. Finally, simplify the resulting fraction if possible.
You can simplify an improper fraction, unless the numbers are prime. Simplify it like how you would regularly, but don't forget that you can always turn it into a mixed number.
