Answer:
When dividing rational numbers, multiply by the "right" reciprocal.
The reciprocal means to take the reciprocal of the fraction on the right-hand side of the division operator.
For example:
if you have 5, the reciprocal will be the oppisite, so you will change where the 5 goes, and it will look like this:
1/5.
Step-by-step explanation:
Another example is if you have 5/7 the reciprocal will be 7/5.
So all you're doing is changing the numbers (Swapping them.)
