ok, to divide fractions you multiply the opppostie right? So if let's say I had
2/5 divided bye 3/8 you'd change it to 2/5X8/3= 16/15 equals 1/1/15
Right? :shock:
I hope so :roll:

If you mean "to divide by a fraction, one multiplies by the reciprocal", then the answer is "yes". If you mean something else, please clarify. Thank you.

So if[,] let's say[,] I had 2/5 divided [by] 3/8[,] you'd change it to 2/5X8/3= 16/15 equals [1.¹/₁₅.]

If "2/5X8/3" means "(2/5)×(8/3)", then yes.
