Kewl. B)  Ok. Well. Remember this. 
Keep. Change. Flip. :3
Keep the first fraction, change the division sign to multiplication, flip the 2nd fraction.

So, $$\frac{x+7}{x} \div \frac{9}{x}$$
becomes
$$\frac{x+7}{x} * \frac{x}{9}$$

can you do cross multiplication

anonymous · Answer

or straight across

ipwnbunnies · Answer

No need to do cross multiplication here. These are two fractions not separated by an equal sign. Yes, do straight across multiplication. However, it's easier to look at it this way.

You have an 'x' factor in both the numerator and denominator. You can already cancel those 'x's out. c:
Now, what will you be left with?
