1 Division of fractions Similar to multiplication except for one initial step.

2 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

3 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 ** of course, if you have any mixed numbers, change them to improper fractions before you do anything…

16 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 A
