2. MATHEMATICS 6 QUARTER 1
After going through this lesson, you are
expected to divide simple fractions and
mixed fractions.
3. MATHEMATICS 6 QUARTER 1
In dividing fraction is simply multiplying the
first fraction by the reciprocal of the
second fraction or number.
The reciprocal of a fraction is found by
flipping its numerator and denominator.
4. MATHEMATICS 6 QUARTER 1
Make it sure that the dividend and the
divisor is always written in its fractional form.
Simplify or write your answer in lowest term
through cancellation method
5. MATHEMATICS 6 QUARTER 1
Example 1. Find the quotient of 8
9

3
Change the division sign
to multiplication and get
the reciprocal of the
divisor only
10. MATHEMATICS 6 QUARTER 1
In dividing mixed number by another mixed
number, we have to consider the following
steps. First, change mixed numbers to
improper fractions. Second, get the
reciprocal of the divisor and change the
division sign to multiplication.
11. MATHEMATICS 6 QUARTER 1
Third, multiply the numerators and
denominators separately. And finally, change
improper fraction into a mixed number.
12. MATHEMATICS 6 QUARTER 1
• Change mixed numbers to
improper fractions.
• Change division sign to
multiplication and get the
reciprocal of the divisor.
• Multiply the numerators and
denominators. Change
improperfraction into a mixed
number
