hello!

Divide fractions:-


\displaystyle(3)/(4) :(1)/(6)

Multiply the 1st fraction times the reciprocal of the 2nd fraction (flop the second fraction over) :-


\displaystyle(3)/(4) *(6)/(1) =(3*6)/(4*1)=(18)/(4)

[If necessary, divide the top & bottom by 2, and you'll have 9/2]

note:-

Hope everything is clear; if you need any explanation/clarification, kindly let me know, and I will comment and/or edit my answer :)
