Could someone explain how to divide fractions?

OpenStudy (ny,ny):

KCF = keep, change, flip. KEEP the first fraction you're dividing by. CHANGE the division sign to multiplication FLIP the second fraction to its reciprocal. (example: 1/2 will flip to 2/1) from there, just multiply.

OpenStudy (ny,ny):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (ny,ny):

whenever you multiply fractions, you multiply across. I'm mostly sure about that.
