Follow these steps:

  • change the mixed fraction into an improper - or top-heavy - fraction.
  • take its reciprocal. That is to say flip it - by swapping the numerator and denominator.
  • multiply the first fraction by this flipped fraction.

For example, (2/3) / (1 4/5)

1 4/5 = 9/5

When flipped, that is 5/9.

Calculate (2/3)*(5/9) = (2/5)/(3*9) = 10/27.
