Example Question #6 : Division With Fractions

Divide and simplify:

.

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Multiplying fractions is a two-step process. First, you must flip the second fraction (make it its reciprocal) and then set up the equation as a multiplication problem:

.

Then, cross-reduce: 11 goes into both 11 and 22, so you can take that out so it looks like:

.

Then, multiply straight across so that you get .

You can't simplify any further, so that's your answer!
