There is very little that is unique about the process of dividing fractions. Multiply by the reciprocal.

How do you solve the inequality of a fraction?

Basically, the same way you solve any inequality. However, it may be simpler if you multiply both sides of the inequality by the fraction's denominator first; that way, you will only have integers, and don't need to deal with fractions later on. If you have several fractions, you might multiply both sides of the fraction by the least common denominator.


What is the formula in dividing fractions?

There is no formula for dividing fractions, but there is a way of doing it. When you a fraction divided by another fraction like below... 1/2 divided by 4/7.... Swap the second fraction around and then multiply like this... 1/2 multiplied by 7/4.... And when multiplying fractions, multiply the numerators (top number) together, and the denominators (bottom number) together (1x7)/(2x4) = 7/8 Simple


Are there any type of rational numbers?

There are infinitely many types.At the broadest levels, there are integers, fractions and mixed fractions (or mixed numbers)..Another way of dividing them is negative, zero and positive.Within positive integers there are odds and evens, as well as primes and composites.Within fractions, there are unit fractions and other fractions.At more details, there are many, many more types.


Why do you switch the numbers around when dividing fractions?

you switch the second fraction around ( multiply by the reciprocal ) because it is way easier than trying to actually divide the fraction by dividing, you get the same answer. but we multiply by the recipricol because multiplying fractions is simpler. example.... 4/6 divided by 8/5 you then get 4/6 * 5/8 = 5/12
