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.

4/6 divided by 8/5
you then get
4/6 * 5/8
= 5/12

You have to make the fractions improper then you switch the devision sign to the multiplying sign and then you switch the numbers around on the second fraction then you just multiply the fractions.
