When you wish to divide by a fraction, you would flip the divisor and multiply by the new fraction.
3/5 / 7/10 flip and multiply 3/5 x 10/7 = 30/35 = 6/7.With division of fractions you just have to flip and multiply the second fraction. Flipping the fraction gives you another fraction called the reciprocal of that fraction.
you get a completely different fraction
Reciprocal !
5/72 is the answer. You have 5/6 divided by 12. What you do is change the sign. After you change the sign you flip the second fraction. Keep Change Flip. Keep the first fraction, change the sign, and flip the second fraction. You should get 5/6 x 1/12 and that equals 5/72 :)
"Dividing Fractions is easy as pie, flip the second and multiply." Flip the second fraction, and multiply, and reduce.

The 'flip' (the reciprocal) of the same fraction.

A reciprocal is the reverse of a fraction. FLIP IT!

Flip the bottom fraction and multiply it to the top fraction.
Just flip the fraction upside down and multiply
You have the reciprocal. Unless you started with a fraction equivalent to 0.
You flip it to a fraction
Multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second. That is, flip the second fraction over and then multiply the two.
