To divide two fractions, you need to multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. So, (2/9) ÷ (4/7) becomes (2/9) x (7/4). Multiplying the numerators gives 14, and multiplying the denominators gives 36. Therefore, the simplified form of (2/9) ÷ (4/7) is 14/36, which can be further reduced to 7/18 by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 2.

seven eighteenths

Turn the second expression upside down (reciprocal) and multiply the first fraction by it. Simplify the resulting fraction:

2/9 ÷ 4/7 becomes 2/9 x 7/4 = 14/36. Which when simplified (divide top and bottom by 2 in this case) becomes 7/18
