If you mean dividing one fraction by another:\n\n(N1/D1) / (N2/D2)\n\nThe answer is:\n\n(N1 x D2) / (N2 x D1)\n\ni.e. (the first numerator times the second denominator) divided by (the second numerator times the first denominator)\n\nThe reason is that dividing by a fraction (F) is equivalent to multiplying by (1/F). So another way of thinking of the problem is:\n\nTurn the second fraction upside down\n\nThen MULTIPLY these fractions, numerator by numerator, denominator by denominator

Divide 1 by 2/5 or \n1/(2/5) = 5/2

A number that can be written as a fraction.

The demoninator of the fractions are doubling.\n\nSo:\n\n1 1/2 1/4 1/8 1/16 1/32 1/64\n\n1/64 or 0.015625

in dividing fractions, you just multiply them by its reciprocal.\n\nso \n\n[(x+5) / (16x)]  * [ (4x ^2) / [(3x -2)] \n\nperform the operations: \n\n[ (x+5) / 4 ] * [ x / (3x-2) ]\n\nthe answer is:\n\n[x(x+5)] / [ 4(3x-2) ]

change mixed fractions to proper fractions and then divide,\nwhats so hard?

Start with demonstrating the multiplication of fractions through physical models.\n\nSplit a rectangle in half.  That is 1 x 1/2... because you are counting that one thing 1/2 time.\n\nThen split the 1/2 into 1/2.  1/2, counted 1/2 time, is 1/4.  See it?\n\nOK, so... through whole numbers you have already demonstrated (and they should already have shown true comprehension of the idea) that division is the inverse of multiplication. So...\n\n\n1/2 divided by 2/3 is the same as 1/2 x 3/2 because that is the inverse. Division of whole numbers is a reduction of value... division of fractions is an increase of value.\n\nAlso, try this with decimals.\n\n1/10 divided by 4.\n\n1/10 divided by 4/1.\n\n1/10 x 1/4 = 1/40.\n\n1/40 = 0.025.\n\n   ____\n4 |0.1     = 0.025.\n\n25 x 4 = 100\n\n2.5 x 4 = 10.0\n\n.25 x 4 = 1.00\n\n.025 x 4 = 0.100\n\nStart to see the pattern now?

lets say the fraction is 6/12\nfind a number that goes into 6 and 12 evenly\nin this case 2,3 and 6 do but you always go with the biggest number that can go into both.\nsix goes into itself once and into twelve twice so the answer is 1/2\nlets say the fraction is 13/6 its an improper fraction and needs to be reduced. thats the case when ever the top number is bigger then the smaller number.\ndivide the bottom number into the top number this time it goes in twice but you still have one left over. you put whatever is left over on top of your original bottom number and the answer is 2 1/6\n\nhope it helps

I would recommend changing 3 1/2 into an improper fraction.  \n\nSo 3 1/2 will become 7/2.\n\nNow we are multiplying 7/2 and 3/4.\n\nRemember when multiplying fraction we say top times top and bottom times bottom.\n\nSo we will have (7 x 3) / (2 x 4), which is 21/8.\n\n21/8 as a mixed number becomes 2 5/8.\n\nHope this helps!

The world nows that the "numerator" is the number on top of a fractional expression, and that "denomanator" is not a word, but that "denominator" is the number on the bottom of a fractional expression.  I congratulate you on already "nowing" this, since this means your math skills greatly outscale your English language skills! LOL

First, change any mixed number into improper fraction.\n\nThen, I will show you how to divide fractions.\nThink of a, c as the numerators and b and d as denominators. Then you want to divide a/b by c/d. It will be written like this:\n(a/b)/(c/d)\n\nGet the reciprocal of(invert) the divisor, and multiply it to the dividend\n\nthe reciprocal of c/d is d/c, so\n(a/b)/(c/d) = a/b x d/c\n\nmultiply them now\n(a x d)/(b x c)\n\n^_^

As Lauren said, it's 1/x.\n\nMemorize this. It will be very useful.

Use a division sign in parentheses. That way three fourths will look like (3/4).

Well, 2/5 is already a fraction.  It is a "rational fraction," which means that it is expressed as a ratio, i.e. one number divided by another.\n\nYou can also express it as a decimal fraction.  Divide 5 into 2 by the usual means you do division and you will find that 2/5 = 0.4.\n\nYou can also express it as a percentage.  Just multiply the decimal fraction by 100: 0.4 x 100 = 40%.

Ask him/her for the remainders.\n\nHe/She soon discovers that in dividing by 5 we always have a remainder of 0,1,2,3 or 4. Not 5.\n\nAnd so on for other divisions.\n\nearl, This is my own experience from my 4th grade!\nNow that I am an amateur numbere theorist I know that remainders are more important than quotients.\nSo as a math instructor, this is my advice for \ndivision problems for a forth grader ;o)

No they are not. You can never have a decimial in the numerator. The answer for the first one is 3/8 and the second one is 53/1000. \nTo get the answer move the decimal in the numerator one place and in the denominator one place too to make it equal. Then simplify.

Thats an age old problem. If you have come to it yourself then you are going places.\nThere is nothing wrong with the equation, except that you have taken 2 like terms (a). they should not be dragged till the end of the equation but eliminated in the very begining.\nWhen you take them to the end you are dividing by zero and thats a taboo in math.
