Division of fraction by a fraction

To divide a fraction by another fraction, you can multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.

For example, to divide 2/3 by 1/4:

2/3 ÷ 1/4 = 2/3 x 4/1 = 8/3

So, 2/3 divided by 1/4 is equal to 8/3.

Rule:

To divide a fraction by a fraction, flip the second fraction (divisor) and multiply.

Steps:

1. Flip the second fraction: Turn the numerator and denominator of the divisor fraction upside down.
2. Multiply: Multiply the first fraction (dividend) by the flipped second fraction.

Formula:

```
(a/b) ÷ (c/d) = (a/b) × (d/c)
```

Example:

Divide 1/2 by 3/4:

```
(1/2) ÷ (3/4) = (1/2) × (4/3)
```

```
= (1 × 4) / (2 × 3)
```

```
= 4/6
```

```
= 2/3
```

Therefore:

```
1/2 ÷ 3/4 = 2/3
```
