    ✅ Thanks so much for watching! ✌️✌️✌️
    ✅ This video covers how to divide a fraction by a fraction and we solve these problems by multiplying by the reciprocal (keep, switch, flip). I added links to other videos on this topic in the description where we take a more in depth look at this by modeling problems. This helps us visualize what is going on in these problems and helps deepen our understanding. No matter what level of math you are in, or teaching, the models can really help us better understand dividing fractions.

    • @calebpersaud2676

      for multiplication and division you just need to multiply them, example:
      2x4= 8
      4x3= 12
      You don't need the same denominator (the bottom number)
      2x4
      *4*x*3* (in this case)
      for division there is something called a reciprocal, heres an example (heres how to solve a division problem)
      7x4
      3x6
      in this problem a reciprocal is just flipping the last 2 numbers, 4 and 6. So the new problem would be...
      7x6=42 = mixed fraction pronunciation: 3 Wholes and 10 out of 12
      3x4=12 =
      then multiply them for division
      for addition and subtraction you need the same denominator, so...
      3+5= 8
      7+7= 14
      It's like simple addition and subtraction but in different ways. Hope this helps

    You can also use cross multiply and divide the two numbersif you cannot divide it, you get the first number you are trying to divide as the numerator and the second number as a denominator.
