This math worksheet practices the flip-and-multiply step of dividing fractions. Each division is rewritten as multiplication: 2/3 ÷ 4/5 becomes 2/3 × 5/4, and 3 ÷ 1/4 becomes 3 × 4/1. Students fill in the flipped fraction, then multiply and write the answer in simplest form. Some problems divide a whole number by a fraction or a fraction by a whole number.
