Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
If u have mixed fractions, like [tex]3\frac{1}{2}[/tex], you will have to change it to improper fraction([tex]\frac{7}{2}[/tex]) to divide with ease.
let's give an example of how to divide fractions.
1. [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] ÷ [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
Now, you will invert the numbers on the right side, and that will cause the division sign to change into multiplication sign.
[tex]\frac{2}{3} / \frac{1}{3} \\\\\frac{2}{3} X \frac{3}{1}\\\\2[/tex]
2. let's have another example:
[tex]2\frac{1}{3} / 3\frac{1}{2}\\\\\frac{7}{3} / \frac{7}{2} \\\\\frac{7}{3} X \frac{2}{7} \\\\\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
