Answer» How do you SOLVE fractions step by step? Divide: 1/ 2 : 1/ 3 = 1/ 2 · 3/ 1 = 1 · 3/ 2 · 1 = 3/ 2 Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal value of the second fraction. The first sub-step is to find the reciprocal (reverse the numerator and denominator, reciprocal of 1/ 3 is 3/ 1 ) of the second fraction. Next, multiply the two numerators. Then, multiply the two denominators. In the next intermediate step, the fraction result cannot be further simplified by canceling. In words - one half divided by one third = three halfs.
