Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal value of the second fraction. The first sub-step is to find the reciprocal (reverse the numerator and denominator, reciprocal of 4
/9 is 9/
4 of the second fraction)
. Next, multiply the two numerators. Then, multiply the two denominators. In the next intermediate step cancelling by a common factor of 3 gives 15
/4
.
In words - five thirds divided by four ninths = fifteen quarters.
(5/3) : (4/9) = 15
/4 = 3 3/
4 = 3.75
