Dividing Fractions by Fractions — Easy Worksheet 1
Grade 6 · MathSheets Name: ____________________ Date: __________
Divide. Write each answer in simplest form, as a mixed number if it is greater than 1.
How to solve
To divide by a fraction, multiply by its reciprocal (flip the second fraction): 23 ÷ 45 = 23 × 54 = 1012 = 56. "Keep, change, flip." A whole number is a fraction over 1 (4 = 41), and mixed numbers become improper fractions first (2 12 = 52). Simplify, and write an answer greater than 1 as a mixed number.
Example
3 ÷ 13 = ___
Answer: 9
