    DIVIDING FRACTIONS

    • Remember these three words:


    –KEEP, CHANGE, RECIPROCAL

    • KEEP First fraction


    • CHANGE Division to multiplication
    • RECIPROCAL of last fraction
    • Multiply and Simplify
    NOTES: Dividing Fractions
    VOCAB: The product of a fraction and its reciprocal (or
    multiplicative inverse) is 1.
    …To make a reciprocal, flip the fraction upside down!

    1. Rewrite in fraction form – Turn mixed #’s &


    whole #’s into improper fractions!
    2. Multiply by the reciprocal.
    **Keep It – Change It – Flip It Method
    3. As always…SIMPLIFY!
