Dividing fractions is easy. I'll list the steps below:
1.Turn the second Fraction(the one you want to divide by) upside-down (this is now reciprocal).
2.Multiply the first fraction with that reciprocal.
3.Simplify the fraction if needed.
To divide fractions, you can follow these steps:
Step 1: Flip the second fraction
To divide one fraction by another, you need to first flip the second fraction. This means you will swap the numerator (the number on top) with the denominator (the number on the bottom).
Step 2: Multiply the fractions
Once you have flipped the second fraction, you can multiply the two fractions together. Multiply the numerators together to get the new numerator, and multiply the denominators together to get the new denominator.
Step 3: Simplify (if needed)
If the result is an improper fraction (the numerator is greater than the denominator), you may need to simplify it. You can do this by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor (GCF) until no more common factors can be found.
Example:
Let's divide 2/3 by 3/4.
Step 1: Flip the second fraction: 3/4 becomes 4/3.
Step 2: Multiply the fractions: (2/3) * (4/3) = 8/9.
Step 3: Simplify (if needed): In this case, the fraction cannot be simplified further.
So, 2/3 divided by 3/4 is equal to 8/9.
