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 divided by 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 × 6/1 = 1×6 / 2×1 = 6/2
Step 3. Simplify the fraction:
6/2 = 3
