To divide rational numbers, the reciprocal of the second fraction is multiplied by the first fraction. By switching the second fraction's numerator and denominator, the reciprocal can be obtained. If you can, simplify the resulting fraction.
As an example, to divide `\frac{2}{3}` by `\frac{4}{5}`.
`\frac{2}{3} \times \frac{5}{4} = \frac{2 \times 5}{3 \times 4} = \frac{10}{12}`, which simplifies to `\frac{5}{6}`. As an example, to divide `\frac{2}{3}` by `\frac{4}{5}`.
