In order to divide a fraction, we have to change it to multiplication (no need to make common denominator). So what we do is "reciprocal" the fraction after the division sign, which means we flip the fraction
[tex] - \frac{1}{2} [/tex]
to
[tex] - \frac{ 2}{1} = - 2[/tex]
and then you simply multiply the 2 fractions together :)
