How to dived fractions

Answer 1

Below are the steps to divide fractions.

Explanation:

We have 2 set of fractions here as an example.

`(1)/(2) / (3)/(5)`

The method to do this is: KCF

or

Keep, Change, Flip

Keep the first fraction as the same number.

Change the divide sign to a multiply sign.

Flip 3 and 5.

Now you have a multiplication problem.

`(1)/(2)` x
`(5)/(3)`

To solve this multiplcation problem, multiply top and bottom (numerator and denominator) individually.

`(5)/(6)`
