Answer:Step 1. Turn the second fraction (the one you want to divide by) upside down (this is now a reciprocal).

Step 2. Multiply the first fraction by that reciprocal

Step 3. Simplify the fraction (if needed)

Example:

1/2 ÷ 1/6

Step 1. Turn the second fraction upside down (it becomes a reciprocal):

1/6 becomes 6/1

Step 2. Multiply the first fraction by that reciprocal:

1/2 x 6/1 = (1x6) / (2x1) = 6/2

Step 3. Simplify the fraction:

6/2 = 3
