anonymous · Answer

You " flip " the fraction you are dividing by, then you just multiply.  Example : 2/3 divided by 3/5 = 2/3 x 5/3 = 10/9. You see how I " flipped " the 3/5 and turned it to 5/3. It is that easy. Just make sure that the number you flip is the one you are dividing by. Here is more examples ...
8 divided by 1/4 = 8/1 x 4/1 = 32
1/4 divided by 8 = 1/4 x 1/8 = 1/32
5/6 divided by 4/5 = 5/6 x 5/4 = 25/24
I hope I made this easy for you to understand :)
