Fractions can have the same denominator, like 1/5 and 3/5. Or fractions can have different denominators, such as 1/5 and 3/8. So the whole thing can be divided in however many pieces.
When dividing fractions, multiply by the inverse of the fraction.That is, a/b divided by x/y = a/b times y/x = ay/bxFor example,2/5 divided by 3 = 2/5 x 1/3 = 2/152/5 divided by 1/3 = 2/5 x 3/1 = 6/55 divided by 3 = 5/1 x 1/3 = 5/35 divided by 1/3 = 5/1 x 3/1 = 15/1 (= 15)

Poem To Divide Fractions :Dividing fractions is easy as pie flip the second then multiply !~Never flip the first!!!!!!!!!!Ex: 1/7 Divided by 1/5 = 1/7 Divided by 5/1 < you flip the second= 5/7Then Simplify(if told) till you cant simplify No more. :)Inverse the divisor and multiply as for example 3/4 divided by 3/5 becomes 3/4 multiplied by 5/3 = 15/12 or 5/4 in its lowest terms

No. 2/3 divided by 3/5 = 10/9
5+12 divided by 3. 5+12=17; and 17 divided by 3 is 5 with a remainder of 2, or 5 2/3, if you do it with fractions. If you want to put a decimal point on it and continue the problem, it would be 5.66666666........the 6 would repeat itself forever.
