The same as when you divide a fraction by a fraction: you multiply by the reciprocal. Here is an example:Calculate 2/5 divided by 7

Since the reciprocal of 7 is 1/7, you convert this to:

2/5 times 1/7

Then you do the multiplication.

That's the same as multiplying the fraction by the reciprocal of the whole number.

3/4 divided by 4 = 3/4 x 1/4 = 3/16
