To divide fractions, we can use a method called "copy dot flip."

Let's say we were given 1/4 ÷ 1/2.

Copy: the first fraction.

Dot: change from dividing to multiplying.

Flip: take the reciprocal of the last fraction.

________

Copy: 1/4

Dot: · (×)

Flip: 2/1

Now, write as an equation.

1/4 · 2/1

________

Now, to multiply fractions, you multiply the number right next to it.

\frac{1*2}{4*1}

Simplify.

2/4 or 1/2

________
