DIVIDING FRACTIONS AND MIXED FRACTIONS
To divide fractions we multiply by the inverse of the second fraction. Sometimes the answer will be larger than either of the numbers being divided. That seems strange for division, but when fractions are involved, it can happen! To understand the meaning of the division process, we’ll first look at modeling division of fractions and then we will practice dividing fractions using paper and pencil.
