for two numbers: a + bi and c + di in rectangular format: (a + bi)/(c + di) can be calculated as follows:

Multiply numerator and denominator by complex conjugate of the denominator: ( c - di).

This gives (ac - bd + bci - bdi) / (c2 + d2). Now the denominator is a real number.

If you have them in polar form: Magnitude<Angle. Then divide the magnitudes and subtract the angles.
