fraction of 1 out of 4 = 1/4
To divide by a fraction, multiply by its reciprocal. In this instance, 4/5 / 1/2 = 4/5 x 2 = 1 3/5 or one and three fifths.To divide one fraction by another, multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second. In this case, 4/5 divided by 1/2 = 4/5 x 2/1.
A quarter is 1/4 as a fraction.
It is: 1 and 1/4 = 5/4 as an improper fraction
Convert them to improper fractions. Multiply the first fraction by the second fraction's reciprocal. 2 and 1/3 divided by 4 and 1/4 = 7/3 divided by 17/4 = 7/3 x 4/17

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. We will use the fractions 1/5 and 1/4 as our examples...A) 1/5 / 1/4(these are your two fractions)B) 1/5 / 1/4 (the fractions "Kiss" a.k.a. come together in one equation)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!)
