Division of fractions
Similar to multiplication except for one initial step.
Division of fractions
Similar to multiplication except for one initial step.
STEPS :
1. Keep the first fraction the same
2. Change the division symbol to multiplication
3. Flip the second fraction ( reciprocal )
4. Numerator time numerator, denominator times denominator

Division of fractions – Application
The figure below has 7 equally spaced holes. To find the distance between equally spaced holes, we will take the total distance divided by the # of spaces between the equally spaced holes. This is found by taking the # of equally spaced holes minus 1
