We need to get reciprocal of a fraction when division is performed.

For example: 2 ÷ 1/5

2 may be a whole number but in fraction form it is 2/1.

1st fraction = 2/1
2nd fraction = 1/5

In dividing fractions, the 1st step we need to do is to get the reciprocal of the 2nd fraction.

1/5 ⇒ 5/1

Then, we multiply the 1st fraction to the reciprocal of the 2nd fraction.
2/1 * 5/1 = 10

So, 2 ÷ 1/5 = 10
