How do you divide fractions by itself?
To divide a fraction by itself is actually pretty easy. Let's say that we have a fraction which is a/b (so a and b could be any numbers and this could be any fraction). Then, we can do the following: (a/b)/(a/b) = (a/b)*(b/a) (in other words, when dividing by a fraction, you can do this by multiplying by the fraction flipped upside down) = (a*b)/(b*a) = 1 (because a and b cancel each other out) Therefore, any fraction (or indeed any number at all) divided by itself will give the answer of 1.
What happens if a fraction has a denominator of 0?
The answer would be "undefined" as there is no way to divide a number by zero (0).
