How do you divide fractions when the denominator is not the same?

You don't need like denominators in order to divide. To divide the first fraction by the second fraction: -- Draw a new fraction line off to the side, for the answer. -- Invert the second fraction. -- Multiply their numerators; write the product on top of the new fraction. -- Multiply their denominators; write the product on the bottom of the new fraction. -- The "new fraction" is equal to the first one divided by the original (unflipped)second one.
