How to divide a fraction is the simplest technique to perform, it only requires multiplication. keep the first fraction as it is when two fractions are dividing and then multiply the first fraction with the reciprocal of the second fraction (i.e. invert of the second fraction).Example: How to divide fractions 1/6 / 7/8
