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 !
In dividing fractions you have to change division to multiplication and change the second fraction into a recipracol(flip the fraction.
